Former Kangaroos Test star Willie Mason's plans to play for UK Super League Hull KR have been delayed as he is still waiting for his work visa to be given the green light.

Mason was supposed to join the team last month and will now miss the English Super League kick-off in nine days.

Hull KR fans have been playing 'Where's Willie?' since he was signed last September and a life-size cardboard cut-out of the larger than life plater has been spotted at Hull's Craven Park.
