Get this man a job at 3DN yesterday

Oh well I guess the streak of not muting TSN ends at 1 in a row.

Just be happy Suitor wasn’t on there, we wouldn’t have even known anyone else was on the field

With the SMS savings due to injury this would be a great strategy to allow them to load up hard in FA this coming offseason.

Yeah, I bought into Macksymic too from 2022. I’ll happily admit to being wrong. but he’s clearly one dimensional. Multiple RB’s and can’t/won’t run the ball. If the QB can’t hit a bunch of deep shots, they have no answers.

Sad thing is, he left for an expansion team that never played a game. The original San Antonio Texans, not the version the Gold Miners turned into in 1995.

It’s wild how successful Mike Reilly was in his short time as HC, and he’s barely mentioned with the other great coaches. I think we would have won at least one more cup had he stuck around, his departure really hurt the club.

Yeah, that’s the type of versatility the club loves too. If he can keep it up in the heavy set he could carve out a nice career as 2-way depth, or (maybe jumping the gun a bit) even grow into a serviceable starting OL in a few years.

Yeah he looked solid there. Just saying, Walby did start out as a DL..

Roster management or not, MOS is a Winnipeg sports icon. Well deserved congratulations.

He’s right though, strev hasn’t been the same since the Ottawa game

Funny you say that, when Strev is in they literally run the offence we had in pewee/minor bantam back in the 90s. 7 on the line with a fullback and QB option 90% of plays.

2024 Riders = 2014 Bombers

Not much. I feel like I’m crazy the way he gets lauded sometimes for doing absolutely nothing.

There’s zero standard for competence for officials. I don’t see anything changing until they start paying and training them better. Anecdote- When my daughter was in an Edmonton hospital in 2021, one of her nurses was the line judge on the top CFL reffing crew (Proulx) He left a full shift on one of the busiest paediatric wards in the country to go home, eat and ref the Bomber/Edmonton game that same night. If it’s their second job, they’re going to perform like it. You get what you pay for.

Love JY, but someone needs to sit him down about calling cover 0 in the last 2 minutes of games. A bad habit left over from Richie Hall.

1. Castillo- There’s a case for him as our MOP this year. 2. Collaros- Can’t say the same as above, but it was his best half of the season before the dirty hit. 3. Teams (besides the punter)- What a difference Miller has made. HH- Lapo. How refreshing was it to hear football analysis between plays? Awe that’s dirty- The hit on Collaros. Murray Clarke Award- The PI at the end. Just a blatant attempt to give the Riders another shot on Labour Day. I swear sometimes CFL officials are mandated to manufacture drama at the end of close games.

That was a stupid ******* game. Even so, LD wins are rare enough that I don’t really care how it happens.

Cover zero, **** off

I’m sure 3 days after the fact head office will let Osh know the DT should have been ejected.

Looks like the first offensive play of every LDC I’ve ever seen

That seemed to be the consensus after TC for sure. After seeing him in-game, Johnson seems like a slower version of Wilson. Agree, he’s just not needed on the roster right now.

I don’t know about this one at all. Labour Day is a Chinese fire drill at the best of times. With this OL lineup..oh man… The Defence had better the f come to play.

That’s just asinine, has he not watched any football this month?

Ottawa just needs 3 TDs and 3 stops now. No big deal.
