Newcastle have named a 17-man team for their Round 8 game against Penrith on Monday night at Hunter Stadium.

Captain Kurt Gidley makes his return from injury following surgery in early April to repair torn meniscus cartilage in his right knee. He replaces youngster Tyrone Roberts at half-back.

After a NSW Cup game last weekend for the Knights, Willie Mason will make his return to the NRL after being named on the interchange bench. Mason comes in for Adam Cuthbertson.

Wes Naiqama, who played his first game last weekend in the NSW Cup since tearing cartilage in his knee in Round 3, replaces Junior Sa'u in the centres.

Evarn Tuimavave, who was a late inclusion for Richie Fa'aoso in Round 7, keeps his place in the team and will start the game.

Darius Boyd, James McManus, Akuila Uate, Jarrod Mullen, Chris Houston and Alex McKinnon all return from representative duties.

Mason de-registered with RFL until passport completion
Fri April 22, 2011
Source: http://www.hullkr.co.uk

Hull KR Statement: Willie Mason has been de-registered with the RFL whilst the passport process is finalised.

For reasons beyond the club/players control this process has not been completed.

The club were advised on extremely good authority that Willie would qualify for a Tongan passport when he signed for the club.

This has subsequently been backed up in writing several times and most recently again by a letter personally signed off by the Prime Minister of Tonga which states: "I can confirm that all qualifying steps have now been completed and Mr Mason unreservedly is entitled to Tongan nationality and therefore a Tongan passport."

Unfortunately the process has not been finalised following a change of government and the disbanding of the privy council. No passports have been issued in Tonga at all during this period.

The privy council are required to finalise the process. They are constitutionally due to reform next month (May) when it is anticipated the matter will be finalised.

In view of recent rumours circulating about Willie and a move to French rugby union the club will not be pursuing dialogue with the RFL for a discretionary dispensation provided by the rules given these circumstances.

The club will be meeting with Willie and his agent shortly to discuss media reports linking him with a move to French rugby union.

The clubs position remains that Willie is retained under the terms of a contract of employment and that no direct approach has been made for his services.
