Mason told the Examiner he had been ordered not to talk about the situation.

He said: “I can’t say anything.”

Earlier this week Nathan Brown said: “Scott Moore and Keith Mason are not playing. I would rather not talk about the situation but the upshot is they are not playing and that is as much as needs to be said.”
