    Favourite quote from the Rider Forum thread so far.    "Hire Jones now!!!  It's a know brainer!!!"

    May I be the first to say what we are all thinking, here's to Chris Jones falling flat on his face and be less successful than New Coke in Riderland.

  • HaHA   Bo Levi Mitchell         ✔ @BoLeviMitchell Leave it to Rider fans to talk trash after a 3-15 season. Please stop. It's pathetic.

Sure as hell shouldn't be Lulay, as one suggested. Harris, maybe...but even then, I'm not sold on him, based on the second half of the season.

The scouting needs to step up. Walters himself has done a good job. It's the scouts that really haven't. Active in free agency? Check. Signing guys to extensions? Check. Trades to help the team? Check.

The scouting tho has really only produced bass and j adams. Not good enough

Spencer Davis looked good last game of the season but he wasn't being used as a receiver. Jury out on him but looks to have potential but still 3 maybe 4 guys if you include Justin Cole... not good enough.

I'm not a fan of the scouting either, but let's be honest - they also got Cotton, Marshall, Daniels, Bruce Johnson.

Those guys are all fairly mediocre

 

Trevor Harris or Travis Lulay to SASK for sure... Durant is done. 

Lulay?  I hope not

 

Yeah, you're essentially getting one year younger but with the same issues

If I were Mr. Hervey I would be in a definite contract negotiation run with his fa's before they jump ship...From Grey Cup to re-up and in a bloody hurry..

 

Edmonton won a cup without Gretzky, I'm sure they'll survive without Jones.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At this point, I think this is getting blown out of proportion by the media. I don't think this realistically has the legs they are trying to give it. I would think the likelihood of Jones going to the Riders is slim. It would be insane for the Esks to let him go....and they don't have too.

Do the Esks hate the Riders as much as we do?
Yes, yes they do. Doesn't everyone hate the Riders?
Thanks for the clarification. I just wasn't sure if it was a prairie rivalry or extended further.

It's mainly Winnipeg, Calgary, and Edmonton, but most of the league isn't fond of the Riders.

Fact: It's because they suck so much.

Sadly true this year.

Hey Duressler, do you see a bunch of dickhead sk fans also? Or are they only visible to fans from outside sk?

 

 

Well, out here, I don't see hardly any Rider fans period (even cfl fans for that matter). Online, I've definitely seen some though, yes.

Krunch seems oddly quiet about this lol.

Is that ever a bad thing?

Nope. Not at all, lol. Just half expected him to toss jones under the bus now that hes not a shmoe.

Ian Busby   @buzrbe 

So the only West Division team with the same head coach in 2016 as 15 is Winnipeg, which finished 4th. Gotta love the CFL some days

lol, I hadn't even noticed, this should give us a huge edge next season....shouldn't it.

Possibly. Will Dickenson have dual roles in Calgary as well?

I think it's cute how badly the Riders want to be the Eskimos. 

Isn't it the Bombers signing every player the Riders cut? Who have we signed lately from Edmonton? Besides Jones. I have no idea who he might bring in here. TBH, I don't want to much of a Eskimo presence on our team. Sewell is the only player they have that I would want.

With your roster from last year, You should be eyeing more than Sewell
