ALS or Ticats will beat the riders on the final. BC ain’t winning in the cold next week. No chance. No chance in hell. They barely beat Calgary who struggled mightily in the first half. And that was indoors. They ain’t winning. I also don’t see it with Montreal tho. I think Alexander is lots of hype but 1 second away from serious injury every play. Someone is gonna end him one time. He just plays with 2 much aggression. It’s not gonna end well for him.

It doesn’t matter what I think. I’m not the one making the decisions and won’t be ever. It matters what they think and he’s on the PR. Adams is American tho and Jake is Canadian so the comparison don’t work. Just cuz one guy sucks doesn’t mean the guy behind him is a stud.

Are we pretending the Jays don’t spend the same or more. This just proves that Toronto is the city of chokers. I’ve never seen more teams blow leads than a Toronto one does. Something in the air or water there. We need a west coast team to cheer for.

The Buck stops here.

When has he played centre? Also, Kolankowski is beyond useless too...

Also why worry about losing jobs or adapting? It just encapsulates everything that is wrong with the team at the moment

They’re stuck hanging onto the old glory days

That speaks to our lack of depth

Zach saying he wants the core back is troubling, we need to get better. Gives off the vibe that the vets just want the status quo/they believe they'll be fine.

Nope. I think we still lose. Tui was beyond useless when he played. No reason to believe he would have been better. Tony Jones was very good this year. We saw Cobb yesterday and Echols did nothing to think he would be better. The DL we had last week was excellent but because of players that were here less than a week and Bailey. Bailey was on the roster this week.

Collaros seems to have settled into that comfort zone where he doesn't really care anymore. Was evidenced by the suspension he served. There's a whole lot of complacency around this team that needs to get gone. Preseason next year better be an absolute dog fight for spots.

One year extension for Holm. https://3downnation.com/2025/01/15/winnipeg-blue-bombers-sign-db-evan-holm-to-one-year-extension/#:~:text=The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have,pound native of Edina%2C Minn.

hell no

oh 100%. I’ve run into way more of those than you’d think normal in my ventures into saskabush. stay as close to the border as possible drive in and out same day

“It speaks volumes for our organization in that we’re making sure all 21 Canadians on the dress roster, the guys on the practice roster, they’ve beaten out some very good football players. Just because you were here last year in that role… you’re going to be pushed this year. That’s a good feeling for our roster for sure.” - Kyle Walters, 2017 Does that sound like how things have been run recently?

Awesome list thanks! Was holms new deal only 1 year or was that 2 years ago already? The lists are soo massive these days. You really have to act quickly and decisively to prevent torpedoing your off season.

Did a quick list based on what I can quickly find from news releases and/or when players signed (I assumed the standard 3 year rookie deals for nationals & 1 year with a team option for a 2nd year with imports unless a specific length was announced). Might be off on a few and I'm sure the list will dwindle by the time FA officially opens. AYERS, Michael BONDS, Terrell BRYANT, Stanley CADWALLADER, Tanner CASE, Kody CASTILLO, Sergio COBB, Gavin DEMSKI, Nic ELI, Asotui GAUTHIER, Shayne GRIFFIN II, Michael HALLETT, Nick HOLM, Evan JEFFERSON, Willie KELLY, Jake KOLANKOWSKI, Chris KRAMDI, Redha LAWSON, Cameron LOFTON, Eric MAKONZO, Enock MITCHELL, Dillon NEUFELD, Patrick NICHOLS, Deatrick OLIVEIRA, Brady PARKER, Jamal RANDOLPH, Kendall SCHMEKEL, Tanner SCHOEN, Dalton SHEAHAN, Jamieson STERNS, Jerreth STREVELER, Chris THOMAS, Jake VANTERPOOL, Micah VAUGHTERS, James WHEATFALL, Keric WILSON, Kyrie WILSON, Terry WOODS, Jamal The following players ended the season on the PR, making them FA's immediately: Devin Adams, De'Shaan Dixon, Ben Dooley, Matthew Jackson, Jay Person, Hunter Poncius,, Fabian Weitz, AK Gassama, Justin Mayers.

Kyrie was alright. But we need to go younger at lber and should flip the ratio to ni with the young guys there. Apparently zach said he wants to play next year with the current core. Doesn’t sound from the quote like the wants to be in a rebuild or tear down next year. He also said he has “options” for next year.

This is O'Shea's M.O. But it should not be surprising, given his own career. He refused to retire at the end of his useful football life and had to be released by the Argos. If it had been up to him, he would've kept playing believing he could still bring it.

We had one a highly rated college center (Tui Eli) sitting on the bench while Kolankowski fell down a lot, we drafted a highly rated Canadian MLB and another (J.Jones) sit while T. Jones struggled on pass coverage a lot, and we had Echols and Cobb Sit while Mitchell and Corcoran wandered around, we had Jake Thomas waddle onto the field when the ratio allowed an import to replace him, and Cam Allen was sidelined too long. The D-line that we had second last game and was effective was gutted in the ESF. Maybe none of these changes would have saved the season, but O'Shea's stubbornness is more than evident.

Drink heavily

But these problems are one and the same.... guys with tenure never get challenged or replaced. We build the roster assuming they can still play the bulk of the snaps... it's the same problem! You're in until you're too hurt to play and even then maybe you still get to play.

Agree on almost all points, but Kyrie Wilson had a good year and ought to be allowed to compete for a starting job next year. T. Jones was often out of position and Kyrie may have had to try to compensate.

That whole province is a **** hole... It's what happens if Rural Alberta gets to be a whole province. Hard pass from me...

When we were living in Saskatchewan, the wife and I attended a couple of Bomber games at the old stadium. It was mostly fun and an intimate experience although there seemed to be more than average numbers of jackholes who were rude and crude.
