Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

How can he have the inside running for round 1, yet not be good enough to earn a contract extension.

Maybe he was good enough for an extension...but perths offer was better...

Yes, I can see him being an issue again throughout the 2026 season.

Bloke should be in Cup behind Makasini anyway

 

[Camel2281]

Maybe because u can’t keep them all

Wish we'd kept him instead of Heath Mason

Boy I hope that guy comes as advertised. The fan base could really use a superstar to shift the mood.

And TDS showed at Parra he is miles from being NRL ready

There two different players , mason can play , fullback , 1/2 back and fill in at hooker at a pinch, so maybe that’s why we kept mason

Dunno about miles..but the fact that he cldnt walk into the number 9 jersey immediately suggested he's not quite that good
We've had a few of these..Simkin..Liddle..nothing special.
Which is why Im keen to open all options...

Stupid not to if he's off contract.

Mason can't play anywhere because he can't tackle or catch

He’s short which is a disadvantage for an NRL winger these days, but I wouldn’t call him small as he’s very fit, very strong and weighs over 90kgs
Slow ? I have also stated he doesn’t seem to be overly fast, but I wouldn’t call him slow. He hits top speeds very quickly and runs the ball without fear which are two very strong attributes.
I’m 50/50 on whether he will become a high quality NRL player or not, but I certainly wouldn’t write him off and I hope he has a massive breakout season for us in 2026.

To'o is over 100kgs and from what I have seen is reasonably quick for his build.

Probably the Bears could fit in his brother as well.
