September 7, 20231 yr comment_659851 McRae going to the PR makes it more likely that Jackson stays on the AR, unfortunately. I would hope that the new returner and Haba come on instead of McRae and Jackson

September 7, 20231 yr comment_659857 One Haba on the roster please. Would help so much to keep the Jeffs fresh all game long.

Have also noticed now too, with Rose and Wilson back that BA is allowed to play safety back to a more 2019-2021 role...which helps things

And really...how could he not...and also the smart move to not try to appeal Smart move to not appeal...or basic human self preservation instinct kicking into his 2 cent brain? He saw the look in Yoshi's eyes. I believe the latter because after he showed his intelligence level Sunday I am not willing to give him credit for a good decision of any kind.
September 7, 20231 yr comment_659876 Very disappointed in the news on Grant. We really need him but this was obviously a long term injury. I am super annoyed that we waited until this week to get a returner. The Bombers must have known the severity of his injury weeks ago.

The Bombers must have known the severity of his injury weeks ago. 1) He was out running around at practice last week, so they didn't know. They tried it out and it clearly didn't respond well. 2) They were hopeful that they had a replacement in house, but it hasn't been working, so they were proactive and went out and got someone.

And likely he gets pulled off early anyway...this just a "just in case" cost saving move None the less...we should have brought someone in immediately anyway..same with when Haba went down

Last week is now 7 weeks after the injury. 2.) We have not had good returning in 7 weeks. If this happened a week or two ago I wouldn't balk at this, but nearly two months has elapsed. The return game is too important in the CFL to bang our heads against a brick wall that long. 1 hour ago, Booch said: And likely he gets pulled off early anyway...this just a "just in case" cost saving move None the less...we should have brought someone in immediately anyway..same with when Haba went down That would be the point I was trying to get across. Grant might be ready next week, or in October....however, the second he went down and we knew it was more than a minor injury that would keep him out a week, an airlift of returners should have begun.

Yup..epic fail in my opinion...and another example just standing pat with this notion that everyone is a number 1...which they are not

They just didn't hedge their bets at all by bringing in someone on the PR and therefore the McCrae/Parker experiment was far too long. Also, both Parker and McCrae sucked at PR in camp. Not sure why they thought they would suddenly be able to pull it off now. Edited September 7, 20231 yr by GCn20

They should have brought that Cole back if anything... familiar with things...looked good...prob a better PR prospect that most we carrying as well

Hamilton, Montreal, and BC all released returners out of camp that had looked pretty decent in TC. Their names are escaping me right now but I remember watching the pre-season games and thinking these kids might stick. I will readily admit that I value the return game very highly, probably more than most average football fans, so maybe I am overstating the significance of it but I really feel that this was the Bombers biggest roster management failure this year.
