Quote ="Code13"Mason doesn't give any more penalties away than any other player
Nor does he knock on more than any other
What he does do is add some real bite and mongrel in the middle that we missed when he wasn't playing. Last few games he has run hard and tackled hard and what more do people want from a prop?
We could have the entire Queensland SOO team in claret and gold and some people would still say they were no good!'"
We just need Luke O'Donnell back and playing, he runs hard, tackles very hard and adds that air of malice and spite that we are missing !!! Fa'alago seems to play better and harder when LOD is about, as witnessed when they battered Jamie Peacock at Headingly !!
He is the one player in our team that would stop Westwood in his tracks when fit and up to speed.
Based on things staying as they are we will have to beat Hull, Saints and probably Wigan to get to the Grand Final at least two away from home and in my humble opinion we would need to field
Eden, McGilliveray, Cudjoe, Wardle, Murphy or George, Grix, Brough, Crabtree, Robbo, Mason, Ferres, Chan, LOD Bench Faiumu, Patrick, Fa'alago Lawrence
That side would beat Hull and give the others a run for their money assuming we ramp the aggression up several notches
