Not the news i was looking for here. Actually not too worried about Neufeld because id like to see both Gray and Speller in there but would really like to see our complete receiving core out there this week.

When do the bombers practice today? Looking forward to seeing who's lining up as the number 1's!

I believe he was a receiver in his last season only after being a runningback. It was done to give him a better chance to make the CFL.

We gotta snag this guy off their practice roster and Coombs. We gotta catch em all!

Yeah I’m sure Simonise is going to be the focal point of the lions offense this week.

Likely the combination of cutting Hakeem Johnson and Shaq Hill that caused the confusion.

The German linebacker Hanses made the regular roster and I think there are two Mexican based athletes on our practice roster.

I wonder when was the last time a CFL team went into a season without a single American runningback on the roster, practice roster, or injured reserve?

Pretty sure Whitehead would be the first to go in if an American receiver goes down. Wouldn’t be surprised at all if we brought in Coombs though now that we are down to just Petermann.

Probably a case of which guy would take a practice roster spot.

You can really tell by the lack of talent being released by the Riders that they aren't a very deep football team at this point.

Simonise is the kind of guy at this point in his career who ends up on Montreal's practice roster and never amounts to anything as a professional football player. Its similar to when they released Faith Ekakatie. Maybe the guy still had some upside but we needed a player on the roster who was reliable right now.

Height and speed...

I guess the team just got tired of waiting for Simonise to actually realize his potential and would rather go to battle with a player like Schrott who doesn’t have the raw ability but they should at least be able to know what they can expect from him.

He would take Simonise's roster spot. He can be used in a variety of way and provide insurance should Demski's injury become an ongoing issue.

Coombs please!

Bennett to me is a guy who can be a starter in this league and has the experience now to provide some insurance. If Nichols goes down to a season ending injury in week 1 Id much rather have kept Bennett around than McGuire if we can't keep both. I mean we would be down to Streveler with 1 year out of college and McGuire.

Of coarse Hazel makes a big play after I write the guy off

Hazel will be an easy cut.

I was saying after the first preseason game that is like to see more or Kenny Walker. He’s not the tallest receiver on the team but I like his speed and moxie.

I think his conditions where that the league ran the team until the offseason and then he would take over and completely gut the operation and bring in his own people... Basically he doesn’t want to buy the team and carry the loss for this season. I just think that the league wants an owner who’s willing to lose money for a period of time. All I’m suggesting here is the team isn’t folding any time soon. The league would have taken whatever he was offering had that been a real possibility.

Here's what he said.. "It’s them that really walked away more then I walked away. It’s not the money…it’s about the conditions and timeline to take the team.” I can't imagine if there was any chance of this team folding they would have walked away from this guy's money. The league clearly has an option they prefer at their disposal.

I don't quite see it that way. With the Global iniative the CFL is moving towards being able to have teams that average around 20k fans per game become profitable. Its only going to take a few years and there will be a significant increase coming from the league. The team has been poorly run and with the right owner with the right Montreal based connections I think they will be able to do just fine.

Didn't Guzzo say today that he offered the league what they wanted and they turned him down??? So on what planet is this team about to fold ?

Lets pick up Coombs and go with 7 Manitoba based starters!
