Ex-Leeds Rhinos star agrees long term deal with Super League club

Former Leeds Rhinos star Ash Golding has committed his future to Huddersfield Giants with a three year deal.

Capable of playing, Wing, fullback or even at nine, Golding has been an excellent servant for the Giants.

He made his Super League debut back in 2014 against the London Broncos and featured infrequently in 2015 as Leeds won the treble.

By 2017, he was Leeds’ first choice fullback but would enter into a battle with Jack Walker for the starting spot.

This would eventually see him move to pastures new at the John Smith’s Stadium.

Ash joined the club in 2020, after leaving Leeds Rhinos and spending a season in the Championship with Featherstone Rovers, Golding quickly established himself as a fans favourite at the John Smith’s Stadium.

Performances full off effort, heart and desire proved to the Cowbell Army that Ashton was here for the long run and would run through walls for the Claret and Gold, his miss shown during the 2023 season.

Golding can play in a number of positions, and his utility value well respected by the Giants, as we hand the Jamaican International a three-year extension to his contract that sees him stay in the Cowbell Army until 2027.

After penning his new deal, we discussed how much this club means to him and how excited he is to spend the next three years at a club that he’s found a home at.

“I’m over the moon, it’s not the best kept secret with my injury last season and it was really frustrating for myself, but the club has backed me, seen what I can do on the field they’ve hopefully seen what I bring off the field in and around the lads and with the younger ones, so to be rewarded with a 3-year-deal at such a historical club, I truly believe we are on the cusp of something special.

“So it’s outstanding for me individually and outstanding for the club to have got it done, All round happy parties, there’s not many times where I go away from deals that have been done and pop open Champagne, but for this I was truly emotionally happy with this deal”
