They get 18 cheques. One per game week. Practice roster starts week 1 and ends once team is out of playoffs. 18x750 would be salary plus some allowances, so around $15,000 if someone spent the whole year on the PR.

Poop would take Ekakatie off.

Less than $15,000 per year.

They had availability the next day. Wiecek is basically saying "wah wah I can't do my job" admitting he has no sources. Somehow Lawless didn't have this trouble with the Jets or Bombers/CFL who have had their own in house media for nearly a decade. Wiecek needs to do his job better. Lazy.

The traditional media has no less access. Tait is in the same scrums as them. The issue here is lack of skill and laziness by traditional media.

Hoping it's a hang around town re-sign next week kind of move. But he would be a nice add for a team like BC or Calgary who are somewhat lacking in possession YAC guys.

Sit Lankford, dress Nevis or Green. Replace Westerman with a NI receiver.

Or toss some picks at Hamilton for Cappicotti. Personally I'd bring another NI receiver onto the roster. Between Coates, Wolitarsky or Blaszko, Normand they can hold down a spot. Gets messy if Harris goes down.

Good luck with that. The Als are one of the most worthless pro sports franchises in North America.

Popp's problem is that he can't find and develop QBs.

Changes to challenges. Toadaso

I don't think I've ever seen that on an INT through just pure indecisiveness. I've seen someone double back to try to get around he corner and give up a safety but that was next level stupidity by Campbell. Even their good plays are bad.

Did you see Durant?

Tate's durability is showing.

Maybe an option for the opposing team to have an untimed down if they accept the penalty and no yardage is possible (on the 1 already).

Bizarre. Why pass from the one? Also bullshit timeout call when no timeout by Riders. Need a real penalty for that situation.

The only difference between those penalties is IC is before throw and PI after.

Brutal call. Textbook illegal contact.

Hamilton has to challenge that one...not sure they have one haven't really been watching but that was illegal contact for sure, Hecht took him out.

Disagree wholeheartedly. The vast majority of injuries are ligament, joint, bone and tendon injuries that have more to do with playing on crap surfaces and overexertion (guys literally too big for their own bodies, out of proportion) and nothing to do with contact. You don't lose that feeling of contact by not practicing it when prepping for games. Same for hockey and nobody has practiced full contact in hockey for years and years.

Maybe. There's a subtle difference and the rules in rugby are way more strict. I was shocked. I took up rugby about 5 years after I finished up with football and there's a degree of "if you can tackle, you can tackle" as my buddy who recruited me said but he instincts are different. You actually need to tackle and with great form, you can't pop a guy and you can't drag him down by his ankles either. Say this for sure, the amount of contact in any rugby practice I've been in pales in comparison to the amount in any football practice I was in, different era albeit. Rugby is absolutely the more physical game in totality. There's a crew of high school football coaches who think they are Vince Lombardi and still torture kids in practice but aside from a little live tackling and scrimmage there should be no full contact.

Their coverage is already better than WCB. What they need is better disability insurance.

It's window dressing. The reality is that nobody who wants to win practices with contact already anyway once the season starts. Think of how many guys barely practice at all during the season, "maintenance" days. There's a way to prepare during the week focusing on the mental side of the game and preparing the body physically that doesn't involve contact until the lights are on.

Brian Tyms cut by Hamilton. Pretty dominant at times late last season, bigger target.

I think it's a good rule. If you have position you can make contact, if you don't why should you be allowed to get bailed out by interfering with the guy who has won position?
