Got a lot of sympathy for KR, thats just crap. Hope the people that put their contracts together were better at it than ours.

Mason.....a rugby union centre.

You're having a laugh!

Seriously??

glad we didn't sign him now. To be fair though he was always a risky signing

Re: Mason to Toulon : Wed Apr 20, 2011 8:33 am  

I have sympathy for the KR fans. Not the club.

Everyone else fully expected him to not stay long, if he came at all, so it's hardly a surprise. The fans deserve better than this glorified publicity stunt though.

He's a complete waste of space and has somehow managed to have even less integrity and loyalty than Orford.

Re: Mason to Toulon : Wed Apr 20, 2011 8:41 am  

quite unreal! I thought he would at least play until the end of the season.

Re: Mason to Toulon : Wed Apr 20, 2011 9:27 am  

The 450,000 Euros is his wage then, and not a transfer fee? Surely he's under contract til the end of the season and can't just up and leave?

Re: Mason to Toulon : Wed Apr 20, 2011 9:30 am  

He can if Rovers agree to release him as Dobson is now fit and they need to re-register him and Masons appropriate passport hasnt come through.

If he is still classed as overseas i would suspect they have had to make a decision between Dobson & Mason for last o/s spot. Looks like the gamble has backfired in getting Mason over on a Tongan passport and the whole thing has become a farce IMO

He is. But if his Tongan passport hasn't arrived yet, and Dobson is back fit (as is the rumour), then one of the overseas players at Rovers is going to have to be de-registered. And since he's been a stupidly big disappointment, it could be in K.R.'s best interests too for him to p*ss off.

Ah, thanks guys I forgot about Dobson being deregistered. Maybe KR always knew he'd be upping and leaving therefore the quota mess they were in would work itself out.
