July 17, 20168 yr Author comment_209041 Good to see Cole getting another shot but hope they hold onto Hubbard. Also Haidara must have shown more than Bastien, next up Richards.
July 17, 20168 yr comment_209047 I think Cole was looking for NFL opportunities and then got hurt? Not exactly sure what his deal was but he's the man opposite Westerman if healthy.
July 17, 20168 yr comment_209048 giving away national players to sask, i think. i wouldnt be surprise if both end in sask PR. Edited July 17, 20168 yr by M.O.A.B.
July 17, 20168 yr comment_209051 Well they gotta do something, but moving around players who aren't even playing isn't going to accomplish anything. I'm expecting some bigger moves in the coming days once the film gets reviewed. And perhaps Nicholls getting a few extra first team reps would be a good start.
July 17, 20168 yr Author comment_209055 Looks like Ryan Smith is injured. Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming Ryan Smith (lower-body) is "probably out for a couple weeks," according to Mike O'Shea. 11:46 AM - 17 Jul 2016 Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming Thomas Mayo, who started Week 2, will play in place of Ryan Smith. #Bombers Edited July 17, 20168 yr by Throw Long Bannatyne
July 17, 20168 yr comment_209058 That might not be such a bad thing. I like smith n weston, but imo its one or the other, we need more size n speed out there
July 17, 20168 yr comment_209072 How awful must Player be to be released from this team Edited July 18, 20168 yr by James Grammer

July 17, 20168 yr comment_209078 perhaps the threat to release or bench some actual players might strike a cord with the starters??? Maybe benching a particular QB so he can see someone else do it might benefit him? Not a chance as long as MOS is HC he is too head strong and stubborn.
July 18, 20168 yr comment_209084 Or maybe the released players just aren't very good and they are being released because it's football and that happens. Ppl who think Willy will be released need to pull their heads out of their ass. Go to a practice. Nichols is awful. There's a reason willy plays and Nichols doesn't. Willy is better.

July 18, 20168 yr comment_209090 Having a QB that is better than one that you say is awful really breeds confidence
July 18, 20168 yr comment_209122 I wonder if a scheme of throwing in QB's for different plays would help out. Like throw in Davis for a possible throw/QB sneak, throw in Nichols for a couple of throws/hand off's, then back to Willy, etc... Mix it up to see if it helps out. It's like their afraid to try something new.

July 18, 20168 yr comment_209131 Yup. We want to continually lose games, this is the best way to accomplish this.
