Bombers Rookie Camp/Training Camp/Pre-Season Thread
Rod Black replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I’m not sure Castillo is the kicker that’s on the edge. Maybe it’s Leggs that’s being challenged. Experience counts, sure, yet the fine Mr. Leggio is the chap that has shown how he performs under pressure. That Montreal game is an example. -

You’re the one characterizing my statement as “not small”. I’ve said it’s Small and therefore makes makes it not central to questioning. I’ve mentioned it’s a small issue repeatedly to ensure those that I’m responding to posters and don’t want them to think I’m attacking them. His suspension list inclusion is minimal on what I think of Grant. Great player. No way am I attacking a favourite. You’re the one elevating the issue, inflating what I’ve said as the problem. don’t worry about my embarrassment. No need for that. You don’t need to enlighten me, I don’t think of you in that way. I have, not even once, suggested he did something to warrant suspension, but I did ask if he did something, once at the the first posting, because I didn’t know. You can follow the posts, rather than make things up. I do assert, not in grants case, and what I have been subsequently discussing, that suspension in a contract implies a disciplinary response. Others say no. Which in my opinion, with reasons and citing, varies. I’m not evil or misguided. I take it you’re not a moderator or admin guy. -

Now that you’ve added comments, that is my point, even if you don’t understand the citing. Read what I initially wrote. You think noncompliance with medical or safety issues especially as a player will allow you to stay employed? -

Since your inquiring, It’s used in the context of language interpretation. Glad you read it by the way. It’s clear you don’t like what I said, in the context of discussion, and now provide orders to disappear. Are you an admin or moderator? The magnitude of the discipline suspension issue is small, yet folks keep bringing it forward. -

You know personal matters can be subject to discipline, specifically if you can’t appear at work. This too is just throwing out ideas. -

Grant was on the Suspended list, most people agree to that. We can’t disagree that the employer has an obligation to report as per the Collective agreement. Most people are glad Grant returns, no argument. The problem you see is that I refered to appearing on the suspension list as being in a disciplinary process. It’s not a big deal nor game changing in this particular case. Because the term “suspension list” is within the collective agreement it falls under the common use of the word used and is defined using generally accepted interpretive rules used in a labour agreement. With no specific redefinition displayed, which is possible, but not provided, it should be interpreted as a suspension in a disciplinary process. That is my justification for placing suspension with discipline. it doesn’t break my heart if you don’t agree with me, because discipline is such a small and inconsequential part of the discussion. https://www.unison.org.uk/get-help/knowledge/terminating-suspending-job/suspension/#:~:text=A suspension is when you,a disciplinary procedure (investigation). -

It doesn’t. We are talking about Grant. Tait mentions Grants return. -

I get he may want and the club agrees to his privacy. And suspensions, I agree, mean the player doesn’t get paid. You identified circumstances which enables the Club to report to the cflpa where they may not get paid, but need to be reported. These are the categories of information reporting, active roster, injured players, retired players, suspension list, terminated and deleted from roster, six game injury, negotiation lists, travel schedules. We don’t get to see those lists. in the case birth of child, it excuses the player, and I suspect is clarified to a greater extent in either the standard player agreement or individual contract. “suspension” is a traditional and constant expression of use in labour agreements for a disciplinary process. Most often given as a right to the employer. True. It could be a number of things that the club could agree to. yet it’s Grant, they recognize his value, and they protect themselves to discipline other players that would absent themselves for similar reasons.
