Smoking Gun just another question, is there any future meetings between mason & the club or is it just now up to Willie to make his decision.

Purely from a footballing perspective I think he would be a good pick-up. IMO we are short on props if an injury or two strikes.
The issue with Willie is:
a) His penchant for attracting negative attention off the field
b) He is widely considered a deadbeat (largely brought upon himself)
If he could keep himself out of trouble, train hard and give it a real go it could be the bargain of the year.

Yes i know we are probably a prop short, why we let Gibbs go i dont know, but Mason is a goose & i worry what this dill will do on the field as well as off the field. Can imagine what everyone will say if we sign him, but Gould has a big opinion of Mason so he could end up @ the Panthers.

Did he actually make it one field at HKR before he left for France? I do remember hearing that jumper sales with Mason on them went gangbusters.

Mason has trash talked the Tigers pack for several years now. He was once asked who has the softest pack in the comp, he answered that no pack is soft, but if you fancied yourself getting over the top of any pack, the Tigers were it. Obviously not the case these days, but back then the Tigers lack of size was well documented. Mason has also publicly ridiculed Bryce Gibbs, even to the point where the Tigers lost in golden point extra time to the Roosters in 2010, Mason said that while Bryce Gibbs is widely considered a massive tool in the rugby league fraternity, he was the Tigers best player against the chooks. A compliment of sorts, but he also didn't miss the chance to put the boot in.
I'd be surprised if he ends up at the Tigers. Personally I don't think the club needs him. I think a sponsor or two might also have reservations about him.

No, no announcement from Newcastle yet !
But I did hear he was allowed to write using a colored pencil today, I think they are close to letting him use a pen.

Not to make excuses guys but you are bringing up stuff that's 10 years old.
Even if you looked at Bryce Gibb's record a decade ago it would look pretty dodgy doesn't mean he didn't smarten up.
