How much of the current Rider team did he build?

Should've posted before the scotch...

Just imagine what our 2017 draft picks could have been traded for...

Could be - but resting Harris this week gives them the best chance to win the east semi.

Of course I didn't mention receivers - that inconvenient fact being against the premise of my argument.

For how many teams does he have to leave the NI cupboard bare before this is no longer brought up?

They need to forget about selling tickets and let Harris rest. A playoff win or two would go a long towards selling tickets for next year.

Areas that this regime has scouted quite well: Offensive Line - Bond, Hardrick, Foketi. Just admit that the Bombers' American OL are the best in the league, and then shut up. Running Back: Flanders - top notch versatile threat Defensive Line - Johnson & Jeffcoat, absolute studs Linebacker: Leggett & Wild are as good as anyone in the league, and better than most Secondary: Walker and Alexander - can't expect DBs new to the CFL to be good right away - these two have settled in nicely. Honourable mention to Kevin Fogg The above list leads me to believe they will find better receivers going forward. If the scouting dept is given the option of starting an American MLB, there's not even a snowball's chance in hell that position won't improve. They could also go the FA route with that position ala Barrin Simpson

I know right. It's just that some are loathe to give credit, even when it's deserved.

3, 2, 1 till someone says 'Toronto found him first'

If it were my call to make, I would rest him next week and focus on the west semi.

After watching some of the throws Reilly made yesterday, even while take some big hits, next week in Calgary will be the least of our concerns. He wasn't just ducking and chucking - he was throwing his receivers open by going to outside shoulder.

Depends who's injured - the Esks went into the tank when they started losing stars like Bowman. The biggest boost for the Esks was not players getting healthy again, but the return of Derrell Walker.

IMO, this past game for the Bombers was the equivalent of several key players being out for the Stamps Nichols = Mitchell Harris = Messam Adams = McDaniel Westerman = Hughes Bond = Erdos Leggett = Singleton

Silly thread - almost identical comments are being posted in the other thread. LOCKED

How can you not see that it's both? Flanders, Legget, Adams, Bond, Westerman. After Nichols and Harris, those guys are the core of the team.

They need their recent draft picks to become starters. Once we've drafted and developed some ratio breakers, other pieces will be easier to add. Right now we are handcuffed by the ratio in several areas, especially in the trenches, receiver, and depth. Goossen and Chungh are a good start, just keep it up.

It's bloody hard to run their ball control offense. Davis might have some success with both Harris and Flanders at his disposal.

1. Anyone who actually managed to catch a pass from Lefevour 2. Special Teams - nice game - too bad the Fogg return wasn't a TD as well 3. Andrew Harris - just keeps battling out there HH: the Defense. Got huge turnovers - did not have Nichols to convert them into Touchdowns

No info yet - he limped off the field

Was not hit - somehow hurt his foot when he planted to throw

Hardrick is playing, it's Bond at left guard who's out.

Feoli Gudino? Here I was hoping with Neufeld on the OL we could at least have Poop & Nevis on the DL. Or is that still happening?

However, they don't play next week. If they end up finishing first, they have plenty resting / healing time till the East final. I sense some very interesting playoffs coming up.

They do - but when it comes to the cream rising to the top - you gotta like Frito Ray & the Boatmen
