A bit like the Korki situation a few years back.

I can't see what's to s about, Shudds fan or not; Mason has precious few years left in his career and has obviously gone with the highest offer - who can blame him? Unless Mickey Rourke is lining him up with a career in Hollywood, he'll need to bank a few bob before he retires.

I said it before and still stand by it, he could have done a job for us. I reckon probably one of the attractions in going to Cas is the guarantee of first team football week in week out, something RA couldn't have given him here and of course at this stage of his career he goes with what makes sense to him financially.

You could be right Shifty ,and maybe thats why Poore joined Wakey i watched him today on premier sports V the eels and he looked excuse the pun poor,i just hope RA ant wasted a lot of good money on another Aussie dud but i suppose we will have to wait and see.

I'd have thought Agar will have made the call to buy him after seeing him play in more than one game, not really fair to judge him that way is it.

I've seen him a few times over the last few years and he missed just about all of 2011 with injury but as the season progressed this year, he's started to get back to his best and looked much closer to the player that he was at St. George and that made SOO in 2009. Good thing is he's only 27 still and should be coming into his peak years.

Number 23 shirt is "available", so that shows we are still looking for a new prop.

www.sportinglife.com/rugby-leagu ... for-sidlow Won't be Sidlow from Salford, not suggesting he was ever an option or heard any rumours, but I'm sure his name cropped up earlier in the thread.

Just got a feeling that it'll be Ian Kirke on a 2 year deal that'll have the 23 shirt within the next couple of weeks.

We've got 4 quality props in my opinion and whilst names such as Mason, Kirke etc would be nice, we don't neccessarily need an established experienced prop which would command high wages. Someone similar to James looking for the opportunity or requiring first team games would be a likely and probably option wish would suit both parties.

Although Matt James has gone to pastures new, IMO, we will be looking for someone similar, both in terms of quality and experience, dont expect a big name.

will tell you now mate poore will be the best front rower to grace the wakey shirt in a long time when he hits his stride this season and as for mason he his to the dressing room as mixamatosis was to the rabbit population. been talking to some of the boys from warrington and they reckon a certain english prop that didn't get a shout in the final has had a lot of interest from leeds. if it comes off they could be releasing one of wakeys old front rowers . could it be darrel or could it be richard ? i've been told darrel but who knows?

Who is that then Adrian Morley?
