As I said his 6 games were a little disapointing. He didn't look for too much work and when he did get the ball he was closed down very quickly. His first game he knew all eyes were on him and he really looked the part but I think adrenaline got him through that one. His match fitness struggled but as said Clinton took time to get in to his role at the club but after back to back games or so he was at one stage touted for MOS.

You are right having only played a few games here and there over the past two years it would be a big gamble but then what about a drug cheat being banned for years then getting a contract. Hudson hasn't played badly (not as good as he used to be) since his return. If a SL club moved sharpish they could have his pre-season intensified and give him the first 6-10 games and I reccon he'd be a real handful.

It's impossible to put a positive spin on the Mason & HKR debacle; it was a pretty shameful episode for the club, the RFL and the player.

I would suggest that he is very much the author of his own misfortune.

It is a shame that it is Mason that we discussing. The reported experiences he has had reflect what a lot of us think about Rugby Union. I was interested to read the quote about having to wait 28 minutes to gat a pass. Anyone else and this would be a great example to show to any of our players who were thinking of changing codes.

I'm glad the article pointed out that the Guyra Superspuds are based between Armidale and Glen Innes... I was having trouble with the geography for a second but reference to those two helped immensely

Problem is, the clubs he'd be an addition to would be unlikely to have the ability to pay Mason what he wants
