New Zealand Warriors choose Krisnan Inu over Willie Mason

THE cashed-up New Zealand Warriors last night said they would be willing to talk to Willie Mason - but they would rather nab Krisnan Inu, who is in the final year of his deal with the Eels.http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/warriors-have-willie-mason-on-radar/story-e6frexnr-1225815735218

  • That makes sense Inu over Mason but why Mason at all. More trouble than he is worth!
    • I read this story and was quite bemused. How can the Warriors be choosing Inu at all?
      Maybe the Eels should come out and say that we'd rather choose Greg Inglis over Willie Mason.
  • The Warriors have apparently made inquires as to whether we would be willing to release Inu from his 2010 contract. Either way, they'll pursue him for 2011 if not released this year.

    Again, not a great deal to worry about just yet. Assuming Parra play to their potential and WIN the 2010 GF, Inu outside Tahu will no doubt have played an instrumental role in our success - in turn, leading to his reinstatement for Kiwi rep honours. He'll be enjoying his footy, and enjoying the company of his mates. His church fraternity is just up the road here in Carlingford so why would he wish to jump ship to the lowly Warriors??

    Okay, the Warriors might offer him $200k whereas we might only be able to offer $150k but he's still so young and will only increase his value playing for a strong side which will up the price for his cash-cow years!!
  • If Inu wanted to go i would let him and get mason bargin basement.
    • No way mate! Inu does'nt want to go anywhere and I prey every minute when mason is free that our club is not interested.
      Willie is nothing but a LAZY attention seeking troublemaking smartarse and trust me parra does'nt need that going into such a crucial year even at a bargin basement price!!!

      He would take nothing under 200K a season - Hardly bargin basement.
      • at this stage of the season who has $200,000 left in there coffers???

        Parra have afew people coming off contract next season and the one after that.

        Mason maybe alot of things outside of football but you dont win premierships etc unless you are capable of play class footy
    • Thats one thing I agree with you on Billblogs. I can't stand the Daily Telegraph... Not just for the Sports section but the whole damn thing. Its like watching A Current Affair/Today Tonight, with the crap that it reports as fact.
  • Here Here, The telegraph is an abomination

    however I will read anything eels related so I get there occaisionally however I almost always regret it as I end up being angry at the lack of journalistic integrity that is out there.
