NC can go get her Season Ticket now!

I hope he has signed somewhere else just to stop all the whinging about the bloke here. What can we find to bitch about now? Must be something....

Good luck Mason and I hope you have a good year up in FNQ. Looking forward to the game where you play the Roosters.

I think the Roosters played it cool, shouldn't cost us anything if Mason is the one to want out.

Thanks Chris, Yeah Im in Brisbane now, but I was born in Randwick, went to Paddo Public and Christian Bros. Lived in Norfolk St and went to the sports ground for every home game.

The whole family are RW and B., lets hope its a start of a brighter future for the Roosters.

Hope that's right, if he asked for the realease we do not pay him
that's even better, I bet there are a lot of do's & don't clauses in the contract

Willie wants 200K from us on top his already "earnt" 100K

It doesnt work like that in this situation... The Roosters will pay Mason at least another 100K to go away on top of the current 100K he has alreay "earnt"

I have heard Mason is seeking 200K fom the club though, and the payout amount will be around 150K...

So Mason gets 250K, we get rid of our problem, all in all its an ok situation, better than losing 400K

lol, taken from - http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/spo...-1225826887948

The Daily Telegraph understands Mason was not impressed with behavioural clauses the Knights wanted to insert in his contract, and that tipped the scales in North Queensland's favour.

So its safe to assume the Cowboys are being less strict? Well for their sake, I hope Willie doesnt play up.

And then -

Roosters CEO Steve Noyce said the final payout figure was still to be finalised, with negotiations between him and Cowboys boss Peter Parr to continue today. "Willie has agreed to come and play for us this season, but I want to stress that it's on the proviso he receives a formal clearance from the Roosters," Parr said.
"Willie's management is working on that now."

The roosters are going to have to cough up more than the money already paid to him.....They have effectively constructively dismissed him by sidelining him. They'll pay him more than the $100K to date but save on the full payment and any headaches associated with having the big willie show at the roosters

Great news!
