He was a good WIL, but with Wild already there Bass got pushed over to the middle where his play was pretty much the definition of mediocre. I'm a little concerned about our LB crew to have edm's rb run with ease on us in the first half. Hopefully the next 2 weeks we focus on correcting some of the things we did wrong tonight

June 16, 20178 yr comment_268827 Went to the game last night..got there a little late and could hear all the penalties being called. It seemed like it was every play by the time we got to our seats, and Edmonton was up 7. The penalties gotta stop, from both the refs and the players. My thoughts: Andrew Harris was Mr. Everything in the first half, strong and determined as always. Nice catch on a deep ball. Nichols looked quite rusty to begin, but settled in very nicely. Chungh had one sweet block to open up a lane. TJ Thorpe looked good till he got hurt, not sure how bad it was but he seemed pissed off. Denmark does what he does, catch the ball. Loved the size of our back up D Line, Poop and Butcher are a load. Didn't see much of Faith. Corney is bigger and still fast. Dom Davis....love how he throws the ball with such little effort. One really bad pass which got picked but a penalty saved it. And then the bomb...60 yards IN THE AIR . A thing of beauty. Glad the Rifles kids got to play.

Thank God that at least one of the local media cares enough to expend a bit of effort to cover the Bombers.
June 16, 20178 yr comment_268842 Am I the only one who didn't even see Poop Johnson play a single down last night?

June 16, 20178 yr comment_268857 13 minutes ago, Doublezero said: Yes. When on earth did he play? I literally did not see him go in once. I saw Butcher, Nevis, Scott and Thomas all over the place getting playing time, but I didn't see big 93 go in and I was specifically looking for him. I didn't even see him on the bench when I looked, to be honest.
June 16, 20178 yr comment_268859 Well, if he didn't play much, so much for the use of Hurl as as an NI to specifically get Johnson into the game - which is what I thought was the plan, and the excuse to play Hurl...
June 16, 20178 yr comment_268860 Just watched the Global highlights, very first play they show, he's in there pressuring Franklin. I did miss the first 8 minutes of the first quarter, but I swear I didn't see him on the field. Weird.
June 16, 20178 yr comment_268861 Sounds like 'Poop' is a hard guy to get a handle on....slippery for a big guy......We have to see more of him for sure

He played the first few series on D and then was in street clothes on the sidelines the rest of the game. I assumed he was hurt when I saw him but nothing was ever announced.

I did miss the first 8 minutes of the first quarter, but I swear I didn't see him on the field. Weird. He was in for a few plays in Q1. Pointed him out to my seatmate. "There's Poop." But you're right. They didn't use him much. He got slight pressure on Franklin once or twice stuffing up the middle and snagged the RB on one run.
June 16, 20178 yr comment_268865 God, for as much as people want to hate on Hurl ... and point to that Perkins run TD as a reason why .. Just watched the highlights and that was entirely Jake Thomas' fault.
June 16, 20178 yr comment_268867 Why is it that this club get's off to such a slow start and then have to play catch up most of the time....Do we like coming from back in the pack and get whipped to the finish line...Last night we did that but came up lame at the finish line...I'd sure like to build a lead and hold it right off the bat for a change....Maybe in Regina....I hope.

Just watched the highlights and that was entirely Jake Thomas' fault. I see things differently on the replay. Thomas for sure got pushed back and he was partly double-teamed. Then he was illegally held, but no call on the hold. Perkins release through the gap couldn't be blamed entirely on Thomas though. Hurl got boxed out because his reaction time was too slow. And Bruce Johnson had the wrong angle for his lateral pursuit - also because he was too slow to react.
