WILLIE Mason has given his version of events that has led to the Manly Sea Eagles forward being investigated for alleged anti-social behaviour, saying "there was nothing in it".
The 34-year-old was thrust back into the spotlight yesterday when the Sea Eagles issued a statement, claiming Mason was under review by the club and the NRL Integrity Unit following an incident in Auckland.
Mason travelled to New Zealand as a guest of tournament organisers Duco and played no on-field role with his new club the Sea Eagles during the NRL Auckland Nines tournament.
Speaking to the Daily Telegraph, Mason said that it was after conducting a promotional engagement at last Saturday's Nines tournament he engaged in a jovial scuffle with his younger brother, Les Mason.
"I did have a wrestle with my brother Les when I was leaving Eden Park, but that was just a brotherly wrestle and there was nothing in it," Mason said.

"I then left the ground and went straight to the Pullman Hotel.
"I was in bed by midnight."
The Daily Telegraph has learned that the NRL had questioned if a woman was involved and that police had been informed.
Mason said: "I would never do that.
"I haven't heard from anyone at the NRL about any incident and I haven't heard from the police either.
"I was with Geoff Toovey and Steve Gigg on Sunday night after the nines and they didn't say anything about an investigation from the NRL.

"Toovs did ask me if I had a wrestle with my brother and I said yes, but there was nothing in it.
"But they didn't say anything about the NRL investigating."
A frustrated Mason flew home with the Sea Eagles squad on Monday confident that he would be cleared of any wrongdoing.
In a statement on Saturday night, the Sea Eagles said: "The club has been made aware of the alleged anti-social behaviour of Willie Mason at the NRL Auckland Nines over the weekend.
"Although not part of the Sea Eagles NRL Auckland Nines squad, Mason is still a representative of the club and as such, the matter will be reviewed internally before offering any further comment.
"The NRL Integrity Unit is also aware of the matter."
