Mason Jets to NFL

Aussie cheap-shot merchant Willie Mason has found the perfect solution for off-season boredom.








The Bulldogs forward has jetted off the the States to take part in "non-contact" training with the New York Jets.

Mason, who is contracted at Canterbury until 2008, has made no secret of his desire to try his hand at gridiron will continue to train with the Jets before heading back to Sydney for the Doggie's NRL preparation.

Anyway, - if the Tri-Nations are anything to go by, those Yanks will be thankful of the extra headgear.

Let's all Laugh at Willie Mason.

Ha Ha Ha!

So Aussie big gob Willie proved to the Rugby League world that he's all mouth and little action.





Not content with mouthing off in the press all week, disparraging the haka trying to batter anything that wore a white shirt, he then went and cost the convicts the game against Great Britain, winding up the GB side and bombing the ball when presented with a gap wider than the Mersey tunnel.

The result, a 23-12 victory for the Lions, their first on Australian soil since 1992 and a RLIF disciplinary for Mason in the coming week.

Let's not get carried away mind. The odd Great Britain victory over the Roos isn't as rare as people might make out, it's just two consecutive wins that happen to be the problem.

That said, it's still bloody funny!
