All Activity

WJ/Haba/Garbutt/Fox/Adams/Woods/Schmeck with Wilson/Ayers/Cole would be the ideal guys to roster with bolded guys eating up 60 to 80% of snaps as front line guys carrying the load. Gives you 7 legit guys upfront to allow your linebackers to actually be active and seek and destroy...not how we have been relagated to using Biggie a lot of late. If/when we nail down Bennett...even better as that would give 8 guys to rotate, and I would slot him into lineup in lieu of the extra O-lineman which is kind of overkill. That would give us a tremendous front....with really verstaile guys both inside and outside...Thomas is not needed and will not bring the energy or athleticism of any of those guys...just watch tonight for a good example. If Schmecks isn't getting it done then swap them out...or let Samson have a go....and again drop Thomas in as a last resort...That being said a healthy Lawson makes things even easier and basically a non discussion Fox...Haba..Garbutt have played on cover teams, so it's not like they only serve one purpose like Thomas does...I dont believe Schmeck does either....tho I recall Mason Bennett doing it

Season starting earlier likely the biggest culprit. And no preseason games on tsn. Will take a while for people to realize that oh yeah, it's summer and cfl is back

I just got weird looks for saying I couldn't wait to get out to the Pas. I then said Fort Hew? and got the same blank stares. Had to shake my head and walk away at that point.😂

Ehlers has a 10 team no trade clause and I am betting that Utah is one of those teams. I like the Ehlers for Pulock rumor. As far as DeMelo goes, if he isn't signed by the time free agency gets here, there'll be numerous teams talking to him and at the front of the line will probably be TO. JMo Pulock would be a great first pairing. Buy out Schmidt and you could have Samberg Salomosson (Pionk if he isn't traded) as 2nd pair and Ville DeMelo as 3rd pairing, but getting more than 12 minutes a game.

this is not good news. the Bombers exist to beat the Riders down. If we don't have the Riders, why do we exist?

Then you’d have 6 import DL rostered! That’s a little much. 2-3 on the sideline every snap even if you don’t use any Canadians on DL. Need some consideration of special teams too which could easily be 20 plays in this game.

oh crap.......they made a sequel to the Wrong Trousers

What's interesting is that with all the lineup changes the Bombers only have 2 new starters that havent been with the team prior to this season.

Ya man that’s my point. Would be foolish to take off an American LB and lose that ability. Especially if there’s an injury

They can be in all game without both Kramdi and Gauthier...we only need to have 1 Canadian on the field at any given time as we only declare 1 as a Canadian position...and 6 on offence

totally agree with this....he's appealing the suspension, but not the reason why he's been suspended. It's a bad look on Montreal

Yes, that will be another thing I’ll be watching for tonight. I hope they vary their depths and mix up their coverages frequently.

You must be the only one left in Canada who thinks Ambrosie is doing a good job. But I'll give the guy credit for this. He earned his salary for ThIS WEEK. We'll see about next week.

I feel like the continuity in the secondary should help a lot. I don’t think we should see busts. It’ll be really interesting to see how much cushion they play with under jy

I’d like to see no coverage breakdowns…. I can’t stand to see one of Faj’s dying quails be caught. It’s just gross.

Streveler

No I think you’re wrong here. Cole is listed as a backup but hopefully will be rotating in like a starter and taking out a Canadian. With everyone healthy Wilson and cole can be in at the same time, either with Gauthier or Kramdhi. If one of the imports gets hurt, and Ayers were off the roster, then you’re stuck playing the Canadians with no American to rotate in.

Keys to the game for tonight Keep our 2 and outs down. Drive the field run the clock. Dominant athletic performance by new guys in the front 6 on D Starting with a bang. Lots of guys haven’t played this year, bunch of changes, gotta set a physical tone to the game and gel quickly. Players to watch, Adams, lofton, and Brady.

Get Faj on his horse right from the get go and watch their game crumble....Have we got the talent to do that??? We are about to find out.....AND I hope one of our guys asks Lemon if he bet the Bombers tonight.....and adds , mistake if you didn't, then commence to bury the buggers

Yes, because Ayer’s and Cole are on the roster. So if you take one off you still have one imp back up. The same depth as the dl and secondary. Taking Ayer’s off for a de would perfectly even out the imp depth. Then a start and an imp have to get hurt at any position to put you in a bad spot. That’s the point.

Yeah I’m an insurance broker and I’m wearing my Streveler jersey. Obviously easy conversation peace but yeah a lot of people asking if there was a game tonight! Oh well going to be a hell of a game anyways. Princess Auto field is always buzzing.

Niverville is still buzzing with being thrust into the national spot light yesterday but lots of people walking around here in Bomber gear today.
