No way will Wigan go near him, by all accounts he is a major disruptive influence.

Yet IL is supposed to have offered long a contract?.

Would rather have Morley even if it was for just one season.

I reckon Maguire might bring a player over with him.

For a year over Graham for 5+ years, behave.

Well he went for Long.

FWIW, Mason will end up in French or Jap RU imo.

My thoughts on the matter of misbehaving RL players is that to be a great player you need to be a bit of a knob, extreme confidence. So the nature of such people will result in problems away from the pitch. Im in no way condoning some of the stuff reported but would you prefer SL and the NRL to be full of Paul Wellens clones.

Eric Ashton? Jim Sullivan? Jack Cunliffe? Sam Tomkins?

I 100% agree with you, but imo signing willie mason would give us all the knob, with non of the great player.

Personally I don't rate him, no doubt he's a big mean bar steward, but he's never really made me jump out of my seat while he's been playing.

And there all shrinking violets ?

The violent nature of the game means that to be a top level player you must have to be psychologically different to most other people.
