Goulding started his NBL career as a development player with the Brisbane Bullets for the 2006–07 NBL season. He managed just one game in his first season. He was with the Bullets until the club folded at the end of the 2007–08 NBL season. In 2008, he joined the Perth Wildcats for the 2008–09 NBL season.
