Willie Mason

Is worth giving this guy a go?

 

[Daniel Dragons]

Hell no.

 

[big pat]

Is worth giving this guy a go?

please don't joke about these things.

 

[muzby]

repeat after me..

"wendell, grab his head and hold it under water. wait till the bubbles stop.."

 

[Godz Illa]

This thread should be shot

Is Wendell playing next season? i haven't heard anything

 

[Slippery Morris]

If you want to see the Dragons win a wooden spoon then they should go for him. 100% strike rate, 2 clubs 2 wooden sppons.

 

[Spartan - Dragon]

I know its ridiculous but imagine Mason under Bennett

 

[vista]

Spartan - Dragon. My thoughts exactly. don't get me wrong, the guy is a wanker - but bennett may be able to do something with him

 

[big pat]

thats a big ask even for bennett, anyway i think he would be too expensive for most teams.

 

[vista]

Rorters are giving 100K to walk away. give him 50K for 2010 and see how he goes.
he can always go back to shellharbour if it fails

 

[Goddo]

NO NO NO NO NO.

If you want a wooden spoon and a club culture like the old Dogs, Roosters or Sharks take him if not NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

 

[boxa777]

For 50 to 100k I would sign him.. This is purely based on what Bennett can conjure up with these types of 'problem' players.

Paea only played a handful of games for us this season and a lot of people were blowing his trumpet deluxe but I agree we do need a power runner in the backrow like Paea and Mason can provide some of that.

For me it's worth the gamble as long as Bennett is coach.

 

[Willow]

Someone has a wicked sense of humour.

 

[jpaciocco91]

No.

 

[cooper04]

NO NO NO NO NO X 10:crazy:

 

[watatank]

He's a good player and would be a great backrower/impact forward but

i) asking price may be too high
ii) he comes across as a bit of a wanker so could be a bad influence on some of the boys off field

 

[_Johnsy]

The thought of Mason wearing the mighty red V makes me wanna

 

[nrlnrl]

Like all players these days, you need to consider the on & off field impact, but especially with players who have a track record. I'd rather see them spend the money retaining emerging players from the Toyota Cup squad.

 

[Slackboy72]

The questions for me are:
a) How much? If he wants a stars wage then he won't be coming here.
b) Attitude? Bennett doesn't want superstar players with bad attitudes. If Mason has performed poorly or sub-standard it is usually while he has been injured so I suspect attitude and effort won't be a problem. The whole game throwing scandal is one that may taint him though as there were rumours that he was one of the ones responsible (if such game throwing actions actually happened).

Personally the fact that he's always on the turps and urinating in public says no to me.
