  1. Yes they have a Mexican player, Gabriel Amavizca-Ortiz
  2. That's some damn fine reporting Rod
  3. We actually had this discussion last year around this time, in a thread called "How many threads do you want?"
  4. I didn't come around much during the offseason so I accept responsibility for things going off the rails. The yard was missing its big dog.
  5. Austin Apodaca... and it sounds like he is playing quite poorly. The Lions have no depth at all behind Reilly.
  6. For sure. Played for Mike Riley at Nebraska, almost exclusively at right guard until his senior season when he switched to centre. Gives the Bombers a good interior option if any of the Canadians get hurt or they want to go 3 imports on the OL.
  7. I think Neufeld would still be the backup RT for now
  8. Zero, he isn't on the roster. Gotta wait til preseason week 2 for Reilly's re-debut as a Lion
  9. Frank Sutton but he got released today
  10. https://winnipegsun.com/sports/football/cfl/winnipeg-bluebombers/harris-itching-to-get-fully-back-into-action-but-understands-why-bombers-keeping-him-out So it looks like Foketi is still on the team for now. It appears to be different from the Thompkins situation.
  11. Winnipeggers love feeling like we're "big-time." That stadium is going to be packed.
  12. There were a few games where we had both Flanders and Harris on the roster. I could see the team using Oliveira like we used Flanders. A few carries and also involved in the passing game. He is pretty thick so he might be able to come in almost like a fullback in some situations depending on his blocking abilities. I fully expect him to get lots of reps in the preseason and maybe start one of the games. Let's see what this kid can do!
  13. Looked like Delroy Baker and Chauncey Briggs were our second team tackles anyways so we're talking about third string import tackle depth here.
  14. We have no idea what happened with either him or Thompkins. You're reading too much into it and assuming they both just quit because they were unhappy with the team. There could be many reasons, some of them non-football related. We just don't know.
  15. To be fair they really did have two 57's listed on the roster sheet they handed out at camp, one of them being Foketi.
  16. Atomic replied to Rich's topic in General Discussion
    Democrat golden boy and CNN-worshipped hero Michael Avenatti in all kinds of trouble lately
  17. Interesting. How is this just coming out now?
  18. The CFL community on reddit is just weird
  19. Hey guys it is one week until the Bombers' first preseason game 😲
  20. Hecht is also a Trump supporter 🤫
  21. There will not be any positive outcome for the Oilers in regard to Lucic in a trade scenario. It simply won't happen. The only way they move him is to take on an equally bad player on an equally poor contract or give up major assets to entice a team to take him. And that potentially leaves them in a worse spot than had they kept him. At 30 years old and only 2 seasons removed from 50 points, I think you can still salvage something from Lucic. A 6 million dollar player? Hell no. A 35-40 point player on the 3rd line? Maybe. And I think that would be the best case scenario for the Oilers. There is no optimal ending here. This is a salvage mission and Ken Holland would be wise to look at it that way. Take the best of the shitty options and accept it.
  22. They split the first team reps at safety when I was there, with Jones starting there in the first session.
