The Americans you're using would've been on the roster and starting regardless.

It was hard to tell, both defensive halfbacks looked to be in the area. I think Bane lined up as the closet slot on the boundary side.

I held back.

I don't think Wallace was 344, when drafted. You also have to remember he's 6'5, so 330lbs isn't a bad weight.

A clown of ass

Tell us how you really feel about Mullinder? 🙂

pretty bang on assesment....that was putrid all around back to the game....has to be less than encouraging watching that as a Rider Coach/Management and realizing....wow...we have a ton of work to do

Mullinder adds absolutely nothing to the broadcast... literally only there to verbally fellate the rider players. There's no insight just so and so having a great camp, a player that I actually really like, great call by coach!

Mullinder is an absolute assclown, always has been. He is nothing but a loudmouth Rider shill jagoff. The guy makes Ballsy seem rational and level headed. Cannot stand the sight/sound of him.

Mid-season form. Impressive.

Riders took something like 9 penalties for 110+ yards. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Watched most of the game but maybe not fully paying attention at times. 3 stars 1. Streveler. 7 of 8 for 65 yards. Trucked a few guys. Looked just fine. 2. Tie. I liked all of garbut rivers and even schmekel. They were all solid and noticeable. 3. Moses. Gemmel. Petrichien??? Whatever his name was. Those guys were flying out there. I’ll add one more for pre season. 4. Wilson. Once he settled down (didn’t take that long for a pure rookie) he looked like he has some legit cfl staring potential down the line. You could almost see the game slowing down for him as he got more reps. as for the ones who sucked. really just Barry eh.

They actually have a thread on RF.com praising the 2…… I had to turn on CJOB mid way through the second. Just couldn’t listen to them mumble about, call out incorrect penalties, incorrect names and the shrieking every time a Rider made a play. I get that they are Rider Broadcasters but at least show a bit if non bias. That’s the biggest thing I miss about Knuckles.

Just an awful showing by their almost starting lineups for the first quarter and a half. Embarrassing really given that we were playing our scrubs.

Fixed it for ya … 😁

I would tend to agree. But the thing is without Barry ehs picks… they just kicked fg against our rookies. You gotta think they wouldn’t be as happy as Mullinder was. Riders O did eff all really.

Riders played that one to win. Bombers played to get a look at some guys.

Not sure the bombers were necessarily expecting Sask to run all those early blitzes in pre season A. was my understanding that doing that is frowned up in exhibition. I always heard coaches would go in to pre season games especially game A and be more vanilla. Like it’s agreed upon type stuff. We won’t do this. We won’t do that. Because it’s more for evaluation and not really much else in reality. Don’t want guys hurt on play 1.

Some one asked for a game summary... this is pretty good: https://3downnation.com/2024/05/20/winnipeg-blue-bombers-sputter-in-preseason-loss-to-riders-14-other-thoughts/

Yea, Woli will never let that happen again tho.

lol yeah it was Kruicks with the carry but they kept saying Jake Kelly. And they also couldn't seem to figure out who #74 was for the Bombers, despite him having his name on his back.

There are not a lot of 344lbs guards in the cfl lol our other guards top out at 310. Dobson had to go down in weight from 330 despite being able to dunk at that weight.

Great points all around. I think mos needs to be surrounded with the right COs. Plop was a great guy to support him early, buck has been better for his fit now. I think JY will be an improvement as he will want to do more and want more roster assets imo. I already liked a lot of what I saw from JY in our front 7 usage as well. I don’t think that’s been raised either, JY let his lbers blitz for pressure not to eat a blocker up and other wise had them running around making plays. He moved fox and Lawson around on techniques to great affect as well. Considering the situation I thought buck called a good game as well. Saw some nice wrinkles set up

yeah typical pre-seaon follies...was just pointing it out as someone mentioend that they were curious what happened there...who screwed up....Woli is very assignment sound...so major brain fart there lol

never said that...but another result from similar or same bad choices....and maybe another?....and showing a stubborness to not deviate...way better coaches than Osh been canned for that....and even less Will re-itterate never said can him...but like he expects from his players...constant learning and working to get better.....the old do as I say not as I do is appropriate as well...
