I don't it was anything Adams did, they just wanted Haba on and they weren't going to take out Willie, Garbutt, or Woods, so Adams is the odd man out. I don't like it, but it is what it is. We aren’t actually, Murphy is back healthy on the pr.

They could bring Murphy on, switch out a Hallett or one of the ST backers. I just don’t think Haba for Adams is worth it. Mind you I’ve never been a huge Haba fan.

The question was why can't we take out Johnson for Haba. cause we be Oshin' ....pretty much only reason...balancing out a roster even if it means it's against his personal bias....dont happen here save for major injures...and even then it's 50/50 And really...for the amount of ST only guys we dress...another galring issue...and fact we seem to refuse to use Ayers on defence, to if anything even find out if he worth even having...pulling him for Haba instead of our best all-around dlineman would make way more sense too....but when has "sense" been the driving force with roster here anyway the last 2 yrs?

I think this makes the most sense... take off Johnson, Case, and Thomas (hahaha, I know that would never happen, but one can dream)... and replace them with Lawler, Murphy, and Haba 1 hour ago, voodoochylde said: Better .. why not take Ayers off? He's not going to see the field for defensive reps anyways. Ayers seems like this year's Cole... I think we'll start to see him get defensive resp as the season moves along... and if that means we have Ayers and Cole as our primary LBs next year... that could work out
August 15, 2024Aug 15 comment_716812 Is ayers actually able to play? After he got the old El kabong last game I figured for sure he'd be out with a concussion for a while.

Cole is hurt... and Ayers is new to the CFL... no one is shocked that O'Shea would play a CFL vet over a rookie... Jones is a stop gap for this year

As long as #8 isnt forcing the ball to him while he is bracketed to perfection...I hope we see Collaros remain on course in terms of what he has been doing these past few weeks. Take what's there, spread the ball out...don't lock on to one guy and force it to him.
August 15, 2024Aug 15 comment_716837 Murphy has made virtually zero contributions anytime he's had the chance. I wouldn't understand any move that results with him being on the roster

When exactly do you think he’s had chances to make contributions?

When exactly do you think he’s had chances to make contributions? He's had 3 games for us and not a single stat to show for it at a position that is all about stats. Given he's not a strong body I can't see him making much of an impact in blocking either. I just don't have a high opinion of Murphy based on what I've seen or heard so far; TC, limited opportunity or hearsay. I don't think he adds much as a receiver or ST player. But Id be happy to be wrong.

Because as much flak as Johnson gets around here, it seems like they have plays being run just for him. Doubt they would do that with Murphy and he would be the "forgotten man"

Doubt they would do that with Murphy and he would be the "forgotten man" he wouldnt have to start...its just bodies for bodies...Haba has to replace an import...and if we needed to start a Canadian reciever we continue with Clericius.....So Johnson off....Haba on....1 for 1....Or Haba for Ayers...
