  1. Looked through the depth charts from last year and you are correct. Frederick only played CB while Fogg was strictly HB last year.
  2. With with way guys like Carmichael & Smalley have played so far, I'm not overly surprised by Frederick. Thought he'd last longer though.
  3. Even back then NJPW was drawing bigger crowds. Their 1st January Tokyo Dome show (which is now called Wrestle Kingdom) drew 50k in 1992.
  4. I think you are perhaps underestimating NJPW and overestimating the NWA. It's not easy to compare them though just based on the fact that the ways people watch are so different now. We can compare live attendance though and NJPW wins hands down. Omega/Okada 1 had 26k in attendance compared to 8k for Flair/Steamboat (and only 130k in ppv buys) . The rematches were 11.8k vs 5.3k also in favour of New Japan.
  5. IIRC he's still finishing exams and wasn't expected to be there until the end of camp.
  6. Had the same initial reaction but I'm hoping it's only because they want to give one of these guys a legit shot at the #1 spot. They know what we'll get from Hurl so let's see what these guys can do when the lights come on. I also think it's fitting we're playing the Riders because that receiving core (outside of Stafford) is very green!
  7. No Hurl listed so Knox & Stone will get ample time to show what thy can do at MLB.
  8. Riders got him with a 5th rounder. Pretty surprised the cost was that low.

  10. Definitely like the sounds of that. He's got a little CFL/Bombers connection already too... his OC in 2014/15 was Tim Chang.
  11. He signed with Oakland at the end of April... doesn't seem to be any mention of when he was released anywhere though.
  12. Reality is not something that usually gets associated with Riderville. Bennett may or may not pan out but watching them backpeddle on Young will still be fun to watch.
  13. Dykowski from 5 years ago is not the same player you have. Let's see if Labatte can stay healthy long enough to be in the conversation.
  14. Not quite. Fletcher had some kind of engineering job up north when he was in the car accident that left him paralyzed. Who knows if he ever becomes a politician (post university anyway) if not for the accident. The Ashtons have no such excuse.
  15. Less Browne I would get... but Brady?

    I know a bunch of people who are betting huge on Holloway. I can't say I disagree with them. Claudia/Joanna is very similar to Miesha/Ronda. A 3rd match is really hard to sell but at the same time, if Claudia earned her way back to the top, how do you deny her?
