Streveler

Hey their soup is good I get chicken and gnocchi every time I go

Seems like such a waste of perfectly good catfish bait.........

I hear he landed a helicopter at mid field.

Initial contact matters, but any hit to the head is in the rule book, so I take my complaint back.

Did he arrive on foot?

That doesn't seem to make its way into the pro leagues for some.

Strev is the easy pick, so even tho I don't like it, I'll use the QB sneak 'loophole'.

TSN producers really didn't want to bother showing any good replays of that hit. Issue for tackler here is hit vs form. You launch yourself into a guys upper body in this era you're probably taking a penalty. You dive at his knee/shins without the guy having a chance to react, you're getting a penalty. So make a tackle with your chest plate and a wrap. The launch here is the real problem. And any head contact is called. Doesn't matter at all what touched first or where the target was.

This will also give us a good indication of how good a coach our ex is 😊

The talent around Rourke was much better back in those days. Im Expecting a season from him somewhere between 2022 and 2024.

They'd be thin out of the gate to always have 2 Canadians out on D, but it wouldn't be that bad. You'd need 2 of Kramdi, Lawson/Thomas, Munier-Bailey, Shay, Smith, Gauthier, Hallett on the field on any given snap. Chances are we will have 2 of those guys on the field anyway. If the difference is QB having time to move the ball vs QB not having time to move the ball, it's a pretty easy call.

It’ll be interesting to see how VA does against us as a Stamp, not saying Calgary is a contender yet.

On the one hand, if 3 import OL offer the best protection I am for it but on the other hand, man does it limit our D. Later in the year with Mackonzo and Kelly back and Shay+Smith more able to participate, sure.

Yeah I think they solved VA last year basically taking a similar approach to how they played Rourke...and really most QB's. Less blitzing, better disguised blitzes, more drop 8-9 out and variable on who is where in our zone coverages so QB can't make any assumptions pre-snap without risking a turnover.

nice to see Jackson here...thats huge not wanting to see 3 imports on Oline tho....will effect our defence big time

Practice notes from DT via Twitter. Vanterpool at LG Kramdi is practicing Jarious Jackson has arrived.

I know we beat him a few times recently, but going back to his Montreal days, VA gave our team more trouble than Rourke has. Other than the fact he’s Canadian, I still think the Lions faired much better with a healthy Adam’s than a healthy Rourke. Glad he’s out of BC.

tis true...actually a more physical one....I still say we should just start him as the "5th" receiver and incorporate him in all sorts of ways...Imagine sets with Him...BO and Logan all in the backfield?....Demski as well running in motion....sucking away who the defender for him is?....Especially if/when Pokey comes back...A unit of him Schoen, Demski and Clercius along with Cooley and Logan as the 5th guy...how could you not be succesful with that and BO as your RB??

Yeah he had some kind of foot injury.

the runs thy had him do were garbage and pointless....and soooo telegraphed.....no QB would have had success with that...so glad Buck is gone as I bet we see all kinds of different tuns....not just with Strev
