Some of our most successful prop signings came from even lower levels than Mason. Bullock himself for example.

Wtf is going on.... Penny pinching to the extreme.
Direct replacement for Bullock so cheap project forward.

And WTF is going on.. Coronavirus followed by a reduced TV deal and expected reduction in crowds first due to restrictions then from people who have got out of the habit.
Speculate to accumulate?

In what context do you view Bullock as being successful?

I was assuming that people were complaining about Bullock being replaced by Mason, that they believed Bullock to be better than Mason?

So Nathan Mason. I posted on here a few years ago about us recruiting him when we had the thread "which players would you sign if so and so got relegated" He was just coming out the academy then but was a big unit

Never really fulfilled his potential but maybe because we have his younger brother on our books we looked again.??
