just seen on fox sports that willie mason is keen to return to the nrl.
do you think the tigers would be interested in signing him ???
personally unless he was signed for a small amount i hope not .
whats your thoughts
 
Was a good player in his day but I feel he is past his prime. However, if he were signed, I would hope it were for peanuts and to be honest, if any NRL club signed him, it's all I can see him getting.

Also, he wouldn't be put in my starting side in a hurry either. He would be behind the likes of Groat and Woods (and also Dywer when he returns in 2013) but could be handy for injury dramas like that of 2011 in which case he would be fighting it out with Bell for selection.

I dont think we would be interested in him as his best Football is a long way behind him, & any amount of money spent on him would be a waste.
 
If we are to be serious about our anti - wanker policy, this guy should be avoided at all costs… Nothing but trouble and a big mouth just like his mate Mundine.
 
is it the same person making threads like this each time?
so and so wants to come back to the NRL, should we sign him?

i heard he more than likely will be joining his boy reni @ the eels,
don't think any other clubs are that interested.

he was a beast in his prime, see his brothers around a bit.
 
never reached his full ability.
no doubt in years to come, will look back and think if only I applied myself more, I could have achieved anything.

as for coming to wests-tigers, as any type of employee, no thanks.
 
if he wants to be involed in NRL, then become a ref, or touch judge.
to prove his is not in it for money, give something back.
or even better, educate up and coming players on not what to do, or end up like him.
 
Can't wait for the "I wouldn't want to come back for nothing but if the right opportunity came along" comment, just like Ryan Cross.

TBH a player of his capability wouldn't be a huge gamble for some clubs in need. But his attitude and baggage just make him extremely toxic. Would you want Groat looking up to him as inspiration?
 
ok. from a football perspective what is the weakest area we have in our side apart from halfback ?
in my opinion its experianced big boppers.
if he is dead serious and not after the money i would give him a go
start him in state cup put a media ban on him and make the contract incentive based.
if he screws up or shows signs of negativity get rid of him.
and as for the comment by DEMPS
mate this is a forum isnt it ?
i have made 9 posts none of these were about signing new players
:wink:
 
Imagine putting the brain, heart and integrity of Mark O'neill into the body of Willie Mason?

As someone so rightly said in an earlier post, Mason will get to 40 and think, "what if?"

Buckets, on the other hand will look back with absolutely no regrets, knowing he milked everything he was capable of.
