There was space between foot and sideline when he placed his foot...that was clear and undisputeable...when he cut to the inside..it looked like the green had disappeared and possibly his foot touched white..but also possible as he cut the outer portion of his foot was off the ground and above it...either way was not a clear and undisputed proof...and fact no black pellets kicked up from the white stripe tells you he likely didn't touch white...still tho...no iron clad proof to overturn it...so really how could they over rule with their new mandate?

Or Grimey as he liked to be called.

One of the more bizarre signings of the last little while.

Thomas off instead of Adams when the ratio isn’t a factor is just blatant incompetence

That was PI. You can't grab and hold with no position, no attempt to play the ball. That was a classic I'm beat with no help on top of this route desperation grab. The sell job was pretty weak though too.

On a positive note I’m excited to see Lawler back in the line up. The O had started moving the ball more efficiently, the line has given Zach more time in the pocket, and with that extra week of practise there’s no excuse not to see our best offensive game plan.

We aren't dressing extra Canadians so the ratio is a factor if you want to make that switch directly. Haba, Johnson, Karamoko are 3 guys we could easily live without. Reading Tait's story on Haba was quite disheartening. Sounds like a "give a good guy another opportunity" situation. Guy just isn't very useful in comparison to other options. I really don't know how Johnson stays on over Case, even just as a receiver. Johnson is halfway through this season, has no idea how to navigate zones to make himself an option and gets force fed screen passes where he can get yards so long as there's no resistance from the D. Case looks like a technician to me when he's got on the field in the games when guys have been injured. That safety valve kind of guy we need without Wolitarsky or Bailey....the guy that can take advantage of the space the vertical threats like Lawler and Wilson, even Whitehead, open up.

Alexander wasn't out, I mean on the replay he's mm away but there was still green between his foot and the out of bounds line.

It's hard to tell if that's a camera issue or if he was actually contacting the ground. Without definitive proof, they shouldn't over turn the call. All the crider tears won't change it, nothing about that play was clear 100%. Keep it as it's called. That's what the command centre should do. 100% right call.

It you need some truly great insight into the Riders loss last night, we've got you covered....

Ah … the start of a wonderful weekend …

Go ALS (holding nose). … 🤮

I mean....it's pro sports and the only pro sport without guaranteed contracts. If you run foul of the team and league you're always on the chopping block. Says right in the SPC portion of the CBA that the Commissioner decides who is eligible to play. I don't see why Kelly can't file a grievance and try it out in arbitration if he feels he's completed the requirements of the initial discipline. Personally, I'm not sure how his return at all could jive with league policies on respectful workplace. There's no requirement to give him another chance to **** up.

And if that's the case...not a HC I want running my team

We'd be ok in that position because Sergio would not have missed those 4 FGs.

In the end lauther missed 4 fgs and you lost by 3. So irrelevant if Alexander was out. Personally I saw green in between his foot and sideline.

Not so much a stab in the back imo, more of a case of the Als needing to choose the more skilled or more promising player. Same with Adams, it’s not a stab in the back. Guy had a terrible game, then got hurt (like he always does). BC’s trying for a home GC. If I was a Lions fan, I’d be livid if they passed on Rourke because of “loyalty” to VA.

The guidance that the CC was given was to only overturn if it was clear and obvious, and if they have to slow it down to a single frame, that's going too far. In the moment, I thought he stayed in, on the replay in the highlights, it looked like his foot may have slipped sideways as he pushed off. I think that whichever call was made on the field was going to be confirmed because it wasn't clear and obvious, so the TD stood.

Lauther about to be manured.

Alexanders girlfriend the blonde they keep showing and her friend with the purple hair live in a building I do maintenance at in Kelowna , so Im kind of famous as well.

ALS offence looks like the Lions from a few weeks back … Who ya calling a clown?

Have you guys heard the Milligan and Beverette are pretty good? Thought I'd let people know as Suits only mentioned it 600 times and you may have missed it.

Best fans in the league …

In news that should shock no one... except perhaps the person who thought it was a good idea to bring him in in the first place

True, but coaches can still plan, and it ended up being a longer week with the game being on Sunday. And you know a lot of guys are still thinking football and how to be better.

Still, even if they call it out, Montreal has the ball 3rd and short. Fg for OT was on the table or still possibly a touchdown to win. This one is so close it's not worth the riders fretting over especially considering the pants on head ******** face masking penalty the als took to even give the riders a chance to miss another kick.

The incompetence of the command center is astounding. Just remember the 2021 west final with McSpitty Williams catch that clearly hit the turf but somehow was confirmed and allowed the Cryders to continue. How the hell are these idiots still employed? And let's not.forget the shitshow last week in Ottawa. Anyways love to see the L on the riders as it keeps the Bombers within striking distance. Looking forward to Sunday.

Highlight of the night, Riders lose … again 😂

ever since Garbutt got back. Having 2 proper DEs changed the D in such a good way. Throw in the rookie/young dbs settling in it's not just an out of the blue couple game thing.

well good news! Collaros has been getting his crap together... He's cut out a lot of the stupid **** was was getting into trouble with early in the year AND he's getting his #1 guy in Kenny Lawler back as well! Again go back to that Toronto game, Collars was good in that game, the pick was PI that the CFL botched (they even admitted as much afterwards). Bombers lost that game because of turnovers, had nothing to do with Collaros on any of them besided the obviously botched command centre PI decision.

And then CoFaj will do a press conference asking who wants him.

His hair will be on the roster for the next three weeks, however.

I can see Fajardo being a free agent this off season. The "They Suck".... sneaky vibe.

the way i look at it....you win with points scored....and points given up....adly we couldnt score most the yr.....and yeah....of late I like our defense warts and all.....and how can you dispute that the team that gives up the least points per game...not be considered the best defence in terms of scoring agaianst?....riddle me that? and like they say...stats are for losers....put up stats....and still lose...whats that get you? a loss... Harris is a perenial loser...going on how many yrs now...puts up the stats...but cant put up the points...is what it is.... 3 wins against Ham and Edm....and lucky to escape with those 3 wins too....

I am mad at Brett Lauther. You guys jab the Riders all game (as expected lol) if you can’t take a jab back, that sounds like a personal problem.

Entertaining game. Been a good CFL week so far.

K lets all grow up here.... .....LOLLLLLL

Can't overstate how shitty of a play that was by Auclair. Sideline is your friend there. He gave Alexander all that space, stopped his feet and took out his other 2 linebackers pursuing.

I think I saw green between the foot and sideline.

Can't believe how close he was to being out there, but as far as I'm concerned he stayed in bounds.

Montreal mostly ******* around badly. Need to get this offense back on track.

Muamba is flat out weak. Adds very little to the panel.

Blatant horse collar on a QB there.

Ouellette already banged up..tough time getting up a few times...dude looks like Tarzan but tough as Jane

Sounds like we’ve waived grimes from the pr

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/winnipeg-ukrainians-attacked-on-street-1.7294030 These stories keep popping up on a much more frequent basis then ever before, wasn't it a week ago where a kid was attacked with a machete. It saddens me that as a kid in th e 90's I was able to walk around the North End , Elmwood, Kildonan Place mall during the day with little to no fear of anything bad happening. Nowdays I wouldn't even remotely consider allowing my children to take a bus or hang around any of those areas without myself around.

Well, the Liquor Mart approach could make a difference - but then they'd have to pay a decent wage...
