Another one I wouldn't want, 3 years too late. Can't see him coming over anyway.

Willie Mason, although now in the twilight of his playing career would be a big hit in SL.

I've seen the way he used to feed off Oges and back him up and vice versa.

Mason and O'Meley at the Doggies were awesome.

They would be great paired up together in England too.

oooooH yEEESSSS

visa trouble????

Mason is finished not even half the player he once was watching the NRL this season he just looks like another Lauaki we dont need him cant get him so this is a pointless thread.

aye sod it lock it!!!

I think Masons people have said getting a Visa is not an issue.

If he does end up going to your rivals though I reckon it will be an opportunity missed for your club.

Yup.

Mods?

Lock it please

Thread ends here

says the fella who started this topic!!!!

"I don't want to go to a side that are going to lose by 30 or 40 points on a regular basis. I want to go to a well established club that has a fair crack of winning the title."

This quote is directly attributed to Mason on Sportinglife. He will not want to come to us or Rovers

[iMeanwhile Willie Mason has laughed off claims he is poised to walk away from the Cowboys to take up a lucrative deal with Hull or Huddersfield in the English Super League. Reports from the UK claim that Mason has indicated he will play for one of the two clubs but the 30-year-old said he was still undecided and his preference was to remain in North Queensland.

"Some Pommie journo got me yesterday ... they're tossing everything up," Mason laughed.[/i taken from townsville bulletin

Wonder who he means

can someone inform hudge and morgs this

Maybe Hudge was the pommie in question

desperate times call for desperate measures-poor hudge!!!!!

The only reason mason would come to the UK would be for an easy ride because no one in the NRL wanted to pay him what some SL club would

Why have you got a quote off them saying anything but 'early/tentative stages'?

Personally...I didnt much like Mason's comments about "Wanting to walk into a side that is already competing for a top 8 place". It sorta made him sound a bit 'lazy' IMO.......If he was FC bound, i';d want him to say "I'm gonna come to your club and shake it to the foundations cos I' hungry for winning tropheys".

Danny Tickle everytime over Mason......And deffo Lauaki over him.....I like us having a 'loose cannon' in the team. It adds to the excitment. The Willie Mason of 2010 is...well.....slower and probably a lot more expensive than he's worth. Rovers have a habit of spending loads of money on misfits!

Seeing as though he's been linked with Rovers i thought you'd say that

tbh mate if he was linked to us i would say the same. he is a nobody now

7/7 for tickle today!!!!

He didnt no what he was talking about anyway he was just talking b0ll0cks.

we know that ,shame he doesnt

Dunno what this sharks fan is on about I wouldn't swap Mason for Tickle either. Why take a quality 2nd rower, established in the team, one of the best goal kickers in the league, top tackler... for someone who used to be good 4-5 years ago, could have the occasional good game now, but extremely volatile and will (i bet) last just 1 season in England.

No thanks mate we have plenty of good 2nd rowers.

Not a question of how many caps each HAS won.... who looks most likely to get a cap in the future?

Sorry Mason's agent, take him to to Rovers.

As has been said, rarely kicks in open play but he did a few weeks ago, when we beat Saints with a Danny Tickle drop goal!
Seven out of seven in today's game. Not bad eh

I'm still waiting for that quote BTW.
