He was a good centre this past season, except for the snapping issues. If he can clean those up, he can be a great centre.

@stan, the wear at C would likely be the lowest he'd face in terms of impact. Now it would really depend on how his knees and hips are. C is more demanding in those areas. Stan has always kept himself in tremendous shape and has never been sloppy. he looks to move fluidly, even if slower in this age range. At C he wouldn't be facing the mashing every snap, or even on most snaps. Teams aren't going to line up a nose against big stan unless they are in a 30 front, which no one is running as a base. Having been exposed by speed rushes off the edge, he will see even more of that this year. Which means his lower body is at risk from those non-contact type injuries, having to explode out of the stance and kick step to a rusher. Those side-angled pushes at T are what generally cook Ts knees. So it really depends on his physical state and what is worn now. That is a good point, the kr game in the NFL is soo strange now. Moe actually played a considerable while once he kicked inside, first to G, then to C. He actually slide in side for the final stretch of his first year here as well. But he played the last 3 years inside, about 3/4 of that at C. Then he also played C in his final year with bc before he retired. He didn't play T here for as long as you'd think. qft. Such an impressive career, one of the most resilient players we've had.

Honestly having Streveler here on IR and basically interning as a coach would be a pretty smart move. Kind of thing an organization with cash to leverage should be doing.

4 seasons. His 2001 season was ended by a back injury and that was pretty much the end of him being a full-time tackle - he did see some action there but he was mainly a center from that point on. He played until he was 39 so he had a fairly lengthy career & wasn't lasting a whole lot longer no matter what position he was in. By the time he was moved to center, he had played over a decade between the NFL, WLAF & CFL and had suffered some major injuries during that time (and in college).

Woodmansey just completed his first full season at C, he played it off and on the two previous years so he isn't like a true blue centre. But he's damned good and still 28. He's played 82 games, but he's also been pretty healthy through his time in the league. He's got excellent size and build for C as well as athleticism. I dont know how much he will get, but a steal like that in free agency is worth being spend happy on. I do like Eli and am comfortable with Vibert as the backup. He was also solid in the work we gave him at C last camp/pre-season. But there are other options as it stands right now; Woodmansey, an excellent centre in his prime. He will command a premium price. With marty coaching him, I think he only goes up from last year. Mcewen, the riders prized free agent from last year but ended up getting hurt and missing the year. Turns 33, I wouldve loved him last year. This year, he'd be solid at a reasonable pay day. Further to the scrap pile, Sceviour is also a free agent. He is a natural C that has played as much G in the cfl as C. Again, solid pick up if he is on a reasonable deal. Then in the depths of the scrap heap, Starczala. He's a warm body who has started at C, and is likely a 6th ol at best on a good team, if hes healthy. At that point I'd rather take a developmental kid in the draft.

Idk who that is, but that didn't happen either. The eastern final had Woodmansey at C. Revenberg and Dobson played and started every game for the cats at G from week 1 through the eastern final. The depthchart for that game is at the bottom. https://www.ticats.ca/2025/11/07/tiger-cats-set-for-high-stakes-eastern-final-against-alouettes/

I would take him in a heartbeat. Christ we have people here suggesting we move Stan to C. Let's get a real centre so that we can end ridiculousness like that. It seems we are pretty desperate or at least the fans are. Or we can put the goat at a position he has never played, get him injured by the big men in the middle while learning how to snap at age 40. I could barely type that last sentence.

My point isn't whether Stan can do it, it's whether his body could hold up to it. It's not about ability it's about age. If Stan is too old for OT then it's highly likely he is also too old for the interior as well. If he is capable of playing it would be in his best interest to stay at OT. Not many spots open at his position in the NFL anymore. There isn't much for returning anymore. That would exclude you I guess. I could fit your football knowledge in my pinky finger but you are the king of eye rolls I'll give you that. I have never read any post of yours that approaches football intelligence. And lasted how long after?

I'd love to see how much Campbell got from the Riders and how much Sayles got from BC. Hamilton loses Veresuk to the NFL. That's rough.

Good win. Not pretty, but a good hard working win with some more depth scoring.

I met a bunch of his family at McGill a couple of years ago. Some were wearing Als - Kolankowski jerseys....which seemed kind of weird since there was no apparent connection.

Release the Andrea @iHeart Okay there is no denying that the Jets are playing a lot better the last three games. But defense needs to catch up though

well now I can post this

I posted that BEFORE the islanders scored

Not so fast. Awarding a penalty shot for that is absolutely embarrassing. NHL officiating is just terrible.

They found their footing, they found the net, they found a way to keep the lead

Was just basing it on this, which said he couldn't snap so they moved him to G...

Super weak call on JMo, then they ignore Toews getting dumped in front of the net. It’s infuriating what these guys call/don’t call.

It’s backwards. He was drafted as and started out his career at G. He was in and out of the line up and bounced between g and c. But he played much better at c and was at C most of year and maybe the best C in the league. The previous year he was at g the whole year. the cats ol prior to last year was pretty bleh and they didn’t run balanced play call. he’s an excellent run blocker and good in pass pro. he’d fit us brilliantly. I don’t think we will be in the market to pay that though.

There, there.

Recycled coach. Job for life somewhere.

Unfortunately, that ship has sailed. I'd have thought Osh would have asked Chris Streveler to come back as qb coach. I guess Condell wants to do it all alone.

same. Especially sheed. idk if he’d be the best technical coach of the position, but his guys would run through a brick wall for him. He’s one of the best natural leaders we’ve ever had. sheed and yoshi showed more leadership than you’d think would even work in the pros. When ever a new guy would be inserted into the line up or especially start, you’d see them with him in the walk out and warm ups. Those two made me wanna run through a brick wall as a fan lol.
