Yeah true, he clattered Longy a few times off the ball that day too...

If all Aussies/Tongans/Kiwi's came over here and played like Willie did in his first outing I don't think there would be too many problems with pensions being payed!

Leeds have Lauitit, Wigan had and now Salford have Feka, Bradford for years had Vagana and other successful clubs have these big units that can offload in impossible situations. I am quite sure that with a fully fit squad Rovers can challenge.

As a side note, while he was playing I kept thinking he is like a fitter Michael Smith! Massive, difficult to tackle and a very accurate offload! For anyone that wants to have a go about Smiffy just remember he was being talked about for selection for NZ while playing in the National Leagues!!

Mason will only get better the more game time he gets, even when rovers took him off, he was pacing up and down the touch line like a lion stalking its prey, great to see him finally here, yeah he may have a bad reputation in some areas of the game, but on his first game here he did well, lets see how the next few weeks go, when we come up against better teams, we can use the next few weeks to bring him up to speed.

Tell you what there are not too many people who like a tipple that haven't had a pee in the street, just unlucky he got caught once by police and secondly by a snap happy RL supporter that was none too fond of Willie Mason!

Can't condone running from a taxi but he was young and again drunk. His spat with the Doggies too was well publicised but then how many other players have had spats and it's not recieved half as much attention?!

Everything is blown out of all proportion because Willie is a class player who is not only able to talk the talk but he can walk the walk. The most hated man in the NRL but soon to be the most loved man on East Hull!!!!

And Stu Fielden wants to fight Big Willie for charity !!

It gets better,2 hard guys doing a hard job that are prepared to raise some money for charity,well done guys.

I'm all for it depending on the timing of it. The last thing either guy or their respective clubs need is to get injured especially when there's such a high risk in their normal line of work. Wasn't it a bone of contention between Willie and his club when he was at the Bulldogs?

Evening all, thought you might enjoy this article from Australia.

And the Welsh talk perfect Queens English?


For someone clearly not happy to be in Hull she certainly had an eagle eye, I missed this?


This was my favourite part, Clearly unhappy at having to go north of Watford gap services and [iobviously [/ithe headline that made you lot keep reading - It's your city too and there's a larger market in your carpark.
