I am impressed with this signing something to build the team around. I thought after last season he was gone!! https://www.tsn.ca/cfl/article/oliveira-signs-three-year-extension-with-blue-bombers/

That golf match was awful. Can't stand Kadri and my feed also blacked out several times. It sucked to see Sask win but Harris seems like a class act and happy for Hardrick

Semantics. He played most of his pro career there and grew up 300 km away. I think you get my point that he chose to stay here over the team he played over 8 seasons for and coached.

Wow choosing Winnipeg over TO. How bad are things there for him to spurn his hometown?? I am happy he is staying for consistency sake but he will eventually go and what is the back up plan??

He actually had 2 really bad years😀 but he has helped turn the club around and it will be difficult to move on from him, however the club might not have that choice and everyone is replaceable. I also think he has become more arrogant and less open to changing his ways because of his success. Anyway you slice it I think we fans are in for some lean years.

Agreed Plus Collaros is at the end of the road with no heir apparent.

Good bye O'shea. Your smugness will fit in where only 5 people care about football🤣

I refer you to this article... https://3downnation.com/2025/02/13/blue-bombers-gm-kyle-walters-winnipeg-priced-out-on-free-agent-losses-lawler-dobson-ford/ I think they could have used him this year only because the Cup is here.They should have broke the bank for a game changer like him. Any other year I would agree with letting him go.

I do not think it is silly. I believe it was one of the reasons they felt Lawler was expendable. Here is a quote from him about it .."But for that receiver room, I just wasn’t prepared to be able to do that for that amount of money.” And link to the article https://3downnation.com/2025/02/13/blue-bombers-gm-kyle-walters-winnipeg-priced-out-on-free-agent-losses-lawler-dobson-ford/

I do not recall him looking cooked but you may be correct . I saw him as the heart of the online. Keeping Bryant was a great move no doubt but it could be oshea and Walter's both need to move on. He has seemed complacent or maybe Wade is interfering more than we know!

Fair point about Hardrick but they really have let the oline go. He may have needed the change of scenery. Don't forget they chose to stay with an injury prone Shoen receiver over lawler. I will guess management knows something about lawler we mere posters Don't know.

The Bombers are a strange organization. They seemingly let Hardrick and Lawler go when they wanted to stay. They underutilized Brady O and I think he will bolt. They seem to have an arrogance at the most inopportune times. I guess it is easier to let him make the decision to go than the other way round

I think this is directly related to next season. Do you think if he leaves that the Bombers will be worse off next year?

I do not wish for him to leave but if there is a time it might be now as they are in need of a retool and he has already overseen one but not sure he can do it again.

Ok thanks for that. It is pretty big news but maybe not to you

I figure the arrogant Osh will end up in Toronto and it may be a good thing for the Bombers. Their cup run is done and time for new blood to lead the squad. I am forever grateful for what he did for this club but it is not the worst time for a change.

At least you are hoping for the Al's. I thought BC deserved to win last night and I find sask as hard to take as leaf nation.

I only saw parts of the game but sounds like what happened at times in Wpg leaving Brady O out in the cold.

That would be the best of an awful situation. I thought west team gets the home locker but who knows You must be from Saskatchewan. I hope your team wins 2nd best team in the game they should not be in.

I feel bad for Lawler. Maybe he will come back here next year.

Buck , buck , buck so close yet so far. Even if that second and short play call worked it seemed like an odd choice for Rourke to run it into the heart of the defence. A roll out, a screen pass or using their running back would have made more sense now gangreen gets the Bombers lockers. Awful result.

Brendan Taman. I hear you moved on from writing plans on napkins to using looseleaf paper.

True . They were less than mediocre most of the year and bottomed out today

Painful season is over

I know but the blue has lived and died with dominating defefensive play until this year and part of last year where you could see the cracks. The o is also to blame but the d needed to get them the ball back and didn't
