Is he big enough?

Bit of a lightweight for most positions IMO. And while his all round skills are good I'm not sure what he has in his locker that entirely mitigates this.

I think we make Golding our next long term winger.

Gouldings game dosnt translate well to any position other than fullback imo. For me, unless in emergency, if he isnt starting fullback, he isnt starting.

Short term I think you are right. If Walker's future is as a HB then Golding has a chance. Otherwise he could possibly bulk out to become a hooker but he is 2 or 3" too short for a centre.

Lord Percy pointed out yesterday another player from Dave Furner's time here to still be at the club, namely Carl Ablett, who made one sub appearance in 2004 (away at London, I believe).

Golding has zero pace and couldn't skin a rice pudding.

I wonder if we could make a hooker out of him? He's as enthusiastic as hell, and doesn't do too bad when he covers that slot. Perhaps they could teach him to play that position?

Golding has shown up quite well playing in that position this year

JJB is a champion player and an even better bloke but he really needs to finish.

Sinfield rated JJB as our best forward yesterday and without his 40 tackles and 17 carries we might well have lost!

Singleton made 51 tackles, but he wasn't our best forward either.
