Which games u been to then

You realise he existed before he came to Hull right? Seen him play plenty in Australia thank you. And I stand by my original assessment. Obviously as a fan of your club, you have to try and justify the stupid overpaid wages he will be on, but unless you're using the "publicity and merchandise" argument, I feel you're clutching at straws.



And I never said we wouldn't (or shouldn't) be paying some of his wages, in fact I said we would and I'd rather not have him than pay them, so I'm not really sure why you made that point. Seems somewhat irrelevant.

Well u need to tell Ur club then don't you as they seem pretty keen on him coming to the bulls, personally I couldn't care a less were he goes what I am saying is u can't judge a player on a few games he was just getting his match fitness up and now it's gone tits up, obviously Ur board feel he is worth a go, personally I can't see rovers letting him go, who knows he could be a bulls player next week.

And stupid overpaid wages u mean like what Orford was on obviously clubs sometimes pay over the odds to get a player they think will make a big difference to they're team in bulls case it was Orford and look how he screwed Ur club over, then they let a player like Menzies go who is playing his best rugby for a long time at catalans.

Yes, exactly like that. Paid him lots and he ended up being a waster. So you're agreeing now, excellent.

With saints signinig laffranchi its got me wondering r we gona sign some top quality next season?

Wow, a post without mentioning Marc Herbert. Well done.

It is ironic that the Bulls seem to be coming in for veiled criticism for NOT signing thirty-something Ocker pension-seekers (Laffranchi) simultaneously with being criticised for even being interested in thirty-something Ocker pension-seekers (Mason). It's a good job we're Bulls, as you need horns for dilemmas.

Hohaia would've been a decent signing for us.

He would, as would Orford if things had worked out, the truth being that a mixture of young and experienced, with a smattering of overseas good 'uns of whatever age, has invariably proved to be the best mix.

Love to see us sign mason or laff

Widdop should be our main target and Joel Reddy would be a quality centre addition, Wether were in for them is another matter!

Right



Rovers v Hudds

FC v Rovers

Salford v Rovers

Watched Rovers v Leeds on tv

Rovers v FC in cardiff on tv



Could see that despite not being on that long, in the hudds game that Mason was not going up in the line, not really taking the ball in. I like to see Hull KR do well, they never were going to from Masons input. First priority was to get Dobson back, now you need Newton back too

And he's predominantly been playing toyota cup hasn't he? (could be wrong on that one. Don't watch enough NRL due to Virgin not having Premier

)

I've edited because I realised I went to the Cas v Hull KR last year, not this

www.thisishullandeastriding.co.u ... ticle.html Quote Not a chance I'm going to Bradford.HULL KR's Willie Mason insists he is not going to Bradford, according to the Twitter account attributed to him. The Bulls have expressed their interest in taking the 31-year-old on loan while he is currently de-registered at Craven Park waiting for his Tongan passport to arrive. But in a message posted on Monday, Mason (mase21) =#FF0000said: "Not a chance I'm going to Bradford."'"

Yeah, really the full quote should be "not a chance I'm going to Bradford cos I'd be expected to do some work which would lead to a chance of injury and put my massive wage offer from French RU in doubt"

Looks like Mason's taking the easy option, I would expect nothing less than that from a guy like him. At least HKR are getting what they deserve. www.thisishullandeastriding.co.u ... ticle.html

To be fair it isn't Mason fault, he didnt want to be de-registered?



It looks like Rovers have lied to him (possible indirectley) and have messed him about.

Ur quite right about it not been masons fault but in what way have rovers lied to him, mason will have known about the passport situation it's just unfortunate that the Tongan government changed or what ever happened, I am sure rovers will learn from this are people not allowed to make mistakes, hudgell has admitted it has gone wrong and I think people continuously pointing it out ain't gonna make a difference what's done is done, personally although I think Dobbo is great I think we should have kept Mason on until passport arrives which should be this month, but then I can see how rovers have seen it with the Toulon thing, all clubs make mistakes.

I suggest you read todays HDM.



It states that when Mason signed he was going to be a quota player, thats what he thought, Rovers tried and failed to get 2 players off quota, meaning Mason had to apply for a Tongan passport.



He would have been here for the start of season if it wasn't for their cock up.



"When he put pen to paper on his two-year deal at Craven Park back in September, Mason signed on the understanding he would be classed as a quota player."

Yes I know that galea was informed that he wud be eligible for Maltese status it hasn't happened for what ever reason, if Mason wasn't aware of the situation then he could have said Na not going to tonga to sort a passport scrap my contract and he could have signed fir someone else, again he knew when he came to the uk it wasn't on his Tongan passport so I don't buy all that, and u certainly don't buy the HDM as they talk garbage at times,amazing ain't it it's not facts they print it's always we believe or we understand this to be, why cos they know they are not getting the info from rovers that they used to get or Want so they just make things up as they go along.

I have responded

Released by Hull KR....

no real interest for us. we dont have a quota spot until jeffries gets his uk passport in june/july by which time mason will be in pre season training with toulon.
