From the reports I've read he's shadow of his former self,so it's a no for me.
I'm sure Wigan will be interested.

Well that can't always be used as a guide.. look at Matt King.. came over on form playing well and he's been garbage.
On the flip side it could do Mason good and re-ignite his career..worth a punt for me.

I would tend to agree, he has pedigree and has had off field problems, but there again so did Ali to a lesser extent before he came to us. With the right encouragement he could do some damage. Only issue for me would be salary

RU bound no doubt

Money grabbing aussie effort.

I'd have him in a shot. One more huge, powerful forward would do us the world of good and ease the pressure on the likes of Kylie & Peacock. Over the course of the season another player like Mason would be invaluable. Can't see it happening though.

Yes good point. Ali also was coming over 'a shadow' of himself and he's not done bad for us as he...

Yep agreed... probably to france. He'd be terrible in Union though.

There was some talk a while back of him trying his hand at NFL. I remember some American professing how he "could see a role" for Mason when he was having all that trouble before and was possibly clubless.

Big Willie might fancy his hand in the D line.
