Willie Mason [Discussion]

If Willie did sign with us they could be waiting for the NRL to ratify his contract. If there where third party deals involved the NRL (Schubert) signoff on the contracts. For us the keep under the cap we may need a small third party deal to get him here.
 
if we sign him he will thrive playing with the players we have at the club ,if i was him i would sign with the tigers as we have the best team of players and backup players out of all the clubs , go with the strength
 
To be fair, Willie's stint at NQ saw him return to some of his former glory.

I would be surprised if he turns out to be another Jason Cayless. Like him or not (which I don't,) the guy can still play and would be a steal if he can deliver…

Willie admitted in an article late last year when he raised the possibility of a return to the NRL that he felt he had turned the corner at the Cows and played some decent footy, in defense of Jason Cayless, the heirachy bought him knowing that he broke down at St. Helens & had their fingers crossed that he could too, like Cher 'Turn Back Time'.
 
With what the tele wrote about a class act like Marshall on the weekend wait til they get there hands on mason
 
sign him up , get him fit before origin comes knocking on tigers door , we could loose - big keith , woods , farrah , ayshford , lawrence , we dont have gibbs , payton , fifita to call on so he has the experience in all types of games . finals , grandfinals etc , jason cayless was broken before we signed him mason is not

Jason Cayless was never anything more than a speculative signing. Willie is still playing reasonably well and not injury plagued. That was the point I was trying to make Leroy.
 
I have this inane gut feeling that if infact we have signed willie, it wont be reveiled until after saturdays trial, most likely sunday or monday…no sources, just a feeling. Dont quote me on this.
 
Can someone just change the thread title when something happens….this threads a bit like work, same crap diff day
 
Mason might be holding off signing until a week before round one to avoid getting smashed at pre-season training. Dont laugh, he has done that before !!
