Former Great Britain captain Garry Schofield has slammed Willie Mason as the worst Australian player to play Super League. Schofield, an outspoken critic of the reliance of English clubs on overseas players and coaches, used Wade McKinnon's early departure from Hull as the basis for a column on Super League's worst imports and named Mason as No.1 after his brief stint at Hull KR last season. ''He didn't just have an abysmal attitude, but he was appalling on the pitch too, '' Schofield wrote in League Express.
