    Teammates loved it too! Collaros tweeted out the kick and commented on his twitter which is usually pretty dormant.

    Me too. Big time kick and side step punt was a thing of beauty. Hope he keeps it up. We'll need him down the stretch and in the playoffs.

    Ah yes, almost forgot that punt play. Very good move to get that away. Wow. Was probably equally as impressive.

    Haven't been to Regina for the game in about 10 or 12 years. Not sure what's changed, so where are the places to go to mingle with Bomber fans on a Saturday night? What times does Wayne's World start on Sunday? Any other tips/suggestions? Thanks all!

    Bombers usually have a banquet on Saturday and you get a free beer and appetizers. Can't recall the name of the place, but it's across from O'hanlan's irish pub which is a good place for Saturday night. Or go to Dewdney street for several pub options Saturday. We usually go for about 1 o'clock or so to Wayne's World. Depends how many beers you want before the game. Lol. 

    Suggestions- if you want a good deli sandwich, hit up itialian star deli! Get it spicy! Also get to the gates 30 mins before game time. Can get busy. Hope that is somewhat helpful. You'll have a blast.

    Not impossible to correct. I worked with a world-class athlete who was always top 3 in Canada but bottom third internationally. Once the emotional crap was cleared out (performance anxiety), that athlete placed fifth in the world two months later. 

    That's really cool! I'm not on the cut him bandwagon, I'm simply saying at THIS stage. Present day. I'm concerned about him the bigger games. It's not like I'm rooting against the kid, but I also don't wanna have him cost us a chance at a 3peat.

    He just doesn't get it! That "dim" wit. I actually get what Noellers saying. He is handling 3 gigs and doing a pretty good job this season generally speaking. The whole team played bad tonight.

    There's no ifs ands or buts around it though. Kid ****** shanked it. 😆 I hope leggs will be a good consistent kicker in this league. **** happens. Let's hope it doesn't happen again, or happen when it really counts.

    What bothers me about these forums is that the minute you had a difference of opinion of someone your condescendingly told youre an idiot

    Yup. Don't mind having differing opinions, but don't start calling others down.

    Dudes job is hit kicks. Especially 35 and 37 yard kicks. There were a number of reasons for the loss but, I suppose if you are ignorant and can't see what's blatantly in front of you, then you would applaude his efforts.

    Kid can't kick in big moments. It happened last year too. The oline, some poor play calling, and a bad call by the ref contributed too. We litterly watched him shank it and lose the game. There's blame on him. Lol

    I suppose Stegalls comments tonight on the post game makes him dim. He doesn't understand football, that milt guy 

    Even the normally level headed Bob Irving isn't happy with leggs! What a bad fan. Lol

    Only time it has to land in the field for a rouge is on a kickoff.

    Could also angle a kick to go out the side of the endzone, doesn't have to go out the back.

    Have seen Prefontaine, O'Shea's former teammate for the Argos, set up for a FG style kick to coffin corner a kick and once to push a single through the side of the endzone.  Can kick it off the tee and put it out of bounds.

    Yeah I agree that they needed to bring someone in earlier.  We have Mourtada on the PR.  Should have brought in someone much better.  Maybe could now, but I'm saying there's likely more value at this point in working through this with Liegghio than having a midseason kicker camp, putting guys out there and cutting them every time they miss a kick.

    Castillo worked out pretty well for us I'd say. Made some huge kicks in the playoffs. 

    Maybe you're right and it's best now to hope it'll work out with leggio, but I'm not a believer and really think this could hurt our chances. West is tight, could be the difference. I don't want to outright cut him, but ' hoping' it all works out seems pretty risky to. It's not an ability thing, it's a mental thing. Hard to coach that out of a guy.

    Yeah who is that?  The Als kicker put a 20 yarder into the upright.

    I groaned right away on that play at the end of the 4th cause the snap was about 1 yard and a half wide of Prukop and I knew it was going to screw it all up.  But yeah just need to make sure we get the rouge there.

    I don't think on the whole we'll get anyone better than Liegghio off the street right now.

    So this happened in August and there's a chance to build from here so it doesn't happen again.

    There's not really anyone in the CFL save Whyte (who's not coming here), Paredes or Castillo who I'd take over Liegghio at this moment.

    It's not my job to sign players. I'm just saying I see it as an issue if not addressed.  I would hate for our chance at a 3 peat be dashed because of our kicking. We can disagree, that's fine. I may be wrong, but I do not trust him.
