Willie Mason

[St. Linnane]

Yes. 1 year deal with appropriate performance clauses, for up to $100k.

Good relationship with Bennett through tri-nations.
12 months post knee reco - rehab all complete.
The amount of community work this guy does which he doesn't get the press for is unbelievable.
A hard hit line breaking backrower who has played at the highest level consistently.

I used to not like him (when I read the telegraph), then I found out more about him. I'd give him a shot.

When was the last time you saw Mason hit the line with anymore speed than uncle arthur running up hill ?

His size and build he should be destroying defensive lines, he does not.

No heart.

Im with you Boxa, if we could get him cheap then id take him. It wasnt to long ago this bloke was the best forward in the world.

I seem to remember him causing our defensively line some trouble in both games this year. Seem to rember him causing the Dogs some damge too.

No more backrowers plz

Is it against the salary cap to pay Les Mason $300,000 to mow the lawn at Kogarah, and sign willie up for 50k a year?

Then i'd take him.

 

[God-King Dean]

If we could get him for peanuts, I wouldn't mind him coming off the bench at prop.

ZOMG.... imagine Willie & Dell in the same team....

Did you miss post 4 Ridders?

Woops. Didn't actually read the whole thread.

My mistake.

 

[God-King Dean]

You watch your cute little arse.

 

[LOYAL DRAGON]

I know its ridiculous but imagine Mason under Bennett

true but no thanks

 

[gregstar]

mason's problem is that he's an over-rated f*ckwit with a rowboat brain behind a battle cruiser mouth.

apart from that, he's an asset for any club.

i must have been at the wrong games, the anzac game he got smashed every time he touch the ball, and at kogarah he made a 30 mtr dash, then spent 10 mins sucking oxygen.

mate you were at the anzac game, what did you think.

 

[Drain the Dragon]

We signed Bennett to improve the club's consistency and discipline. Signing Mason would be a massive step towards reversing that attitude, and would be very un-Bennett like.

Browny probably would have given him a go if the price was right.

FFS, we need a halfback, not a 2nd rower with ADD.

 

[Spartan - Dragon]

I dont know if you guys remember when he played under a good coach in Steve Folkes?

The guy was unstoppable, remember? What player wouldnt play sh*thouse under fittler?

i rekon its worth a shot, bennett would not take any crap from Mason...

 

[big pat]

useless dickhead who shouldn't even be mentioned at this club.

This is the correct post.

We need another centre as well before a backrower. Why we let Stanley go a year early I'll never know. I hope Peni is the goods.
