Me thinks its going to be a full house! Checking ticketmaster and it looks like well under 1000 tickets still available.

Im all for giving him some time but how much time before someone is brought in is the question. Being 4-1 and 1st in the west is a luxury and affords us the time to be a bit patient. Lets not forget the coaches werent sold on his kicking back in camp which is why Crapigna was brought in. I cant imagine the coaches are feeling any more confident at this point.

How is making your team better dumb?? If Hajrullahu is available and the price is reasonable you'd be crazy not to sign him. If you think were going to be ok with a field goal kicker around 70% then i dont know what to tell you. Its just a matter of time until his kicking costs us games. Thinking it wont is just folly. He needs to be better and soon. Period.

Horrible strategy if true considering youve got a bunch of fatties on the field that cant catch quick returners. Missed field goals routinely end up as huge returns. Case in point his 47 yard miss that went back 73 yards the other way. No way that was strategy. OSH thought he could make it.

3 if we didnt have a time count violation, along with a missed point after.

Yup, Suitor has been a Rider shill his whole life, and even he knows it. So much so that he pointed out in the pre-game that he was wearing a silver tie so you couldnt call him a homer, or something to that effect. He forgot to mention the green thong he had on.

According to wind speed data out of Regina yesterday, the wind speed varied between 4km/h with a max gust of 27km/h. Hardly gale force. Again, so far. You cant possibly believe that his kicking isnt going to cost us moving forward. My glasses are as blue as anyones, but his kicking has been awful. Lets not forget, if not for a time count violation we almost certainly lose the game against Calgary.

Agree on both points. However, weve been very lucky that he hasnt cost us games yet, and its a guarantee that he will moving forward if his kicking doesnt improve asap.

Liegghio needs to figure it out asap. Im all for giving the rookie a chance, but his 2 missed field goals were downright awful. Even his 46 yarder bounced at the 5. Not even close. For a guy known for his leg strength, ive been less than impressed. Its not like he's mashing these kicks and theyre just going wide. And his punting has been very up and down. A lot of people here willing to give him lots of time to figure it out, but we'd be singing a very different tune if we had lost by 2 points. He'd be working at footlocker by now if this were the NFL.

...and what did we have, like 4 holding calls on our o-line??? And the Riders had 0 called against their o-line?!?! Leagues best o-line getting flagged left and right, and a bunch of third string scrubs trying to block the best duo-DE's in the league doesnt take a penalty..............Bullshit. Eat a fat **** refs. Also, can someone please tell me how the roughing the kicker call got reversed when the refs gave Dickenson back his flag and told him it wasnt challengeable?!?!? As much of a garbage call as it was, I'd love to hear the explanation on that one. Would also love to hear what they saw on O'Shea's challenge to decide it WAS NOT roughing the passer on Collaros. Hit to the head CHECK, grabbed face mask CHECK, pulled down CHECK. What a ****ing joke. That was an absolute clown show ref job. Embarrassing.

Last 8 quarters against the Bombers: 0 TD's 4 INT's

The Omega-Mu's are here!

Not sure where to post this, but I cant make the Banjo Bowl this year fellas. My tix are section 208 row 10 seats 13+14. Send me a private message if youre interested.

I love the wording in this labor day article from cfl.ca: The last time these two met, Rider Nation was an upright *ding* away from making the trip West to Calgary for Fajardo’s first Grey Cup appearance as a starter. Instead, Zach Collaros and the Bombers stole the game, the show and the Grey Cup forever altering their history. LMAO. IF the pass didnt hit the upright and IF it wasnt intercepted and IF it was caught, and IF they made the point after, the Riders would have forced O.T. And we hardly stole the game. More like total defensive domination with no TD's surrendered.

Reggie Begelton released by Packers today. I imagine he'll end up back in Calgary but maybe Walters reaches out to him?

Reggie Begelton released by Packers today...

Really? Thats a fast turnaround!

Oh....forgot about covid protocol. Might not see him for a couple weeks....

I think he's still got enough game left to soak up some catches in the slot. Im sure he'll be nice and motivated to stick it to his former team!

With Duke not available i'd be all for bringing this guy in, especially if he can return. Nelson is a wet blanket out there on returns. No explosion plays at all.

Fairy concerned how handily it seemed the Stamps controlled both lines of scrimmage. Oshea talked all week about having to be more physical and yet Calgary beat us up in the trenches all night.

Yeah im not a big fan of the 6/7 man blitz with our current personnel. Love Biggie but his speed is quickly evaporating and Briggs is just too slow to get effective pressure. Didnt get much pressure all game. Thought Calgary won the trench war for sure which is disheartening seeing as its our bread and butter.

We really miss Richardson i think. Sayles and Thomas arnt getting it done in the middle. Thomas looks cooked and Sayles has been invisible except for his one sack 3 games ago.

Got a little lucky too on that last Calgary drop, when Jeffcoat's arm/hand hit Maier in the head/face. Seen that called many times.

Did Richie Hall accidentally grab his 2016 playbook on his way out the door today??
