  1. WEEK TWO GAMEDAY THREAD - BOMBERS @ REDBLACKS

    I don't disagree that it was time to move on from Grant.  He's just busted up, also lacking that burst consistently since he came back from the last round of injuries in 2023.

    But surely to hell we can find someone (or multiple) useful guys.  Pretty sure Montreal and Calgary have run through about 5 each the last 3 or so years.

    They couldn't find someone when Grant was injured last year, and still can't find somebody. No way Mitchell should be out there next week.

    Rigmaiden is a front office loss that sucked.  Glad he left for a promotion but he took our scouting to another level.

    This is what I was thinking. I don't know who does what and who recruited who from our staff, but I felt that when we had Rigmaiden we were bringing in much more quality players. Lately I haven't been underwhelmed with who they've brought in. Sure they can find DB's...

    Maybe it's just harder to convince players to come to Winnipeg knowing how hard it is to crack our roster.

    Just bought my ticket to the CFL Awards night yesterday.   Time to start planning what my protest sign will look like.    The media has made this a story so I guess they achieved their goal.   Time for the CFL to reconsider how awards are voted upon.

    This is interesting, and I never really thought about this. The media has made this a story since it happened. Now the local media chooses not to select AH and it's another BIG story. They probably had their articles written and ready to go even before the nomination process, and just waiting for the clicks. Go to any of the local media's websites and you're sure to see how Harris was snubbed. Who was he snubbed by???

    there's gotta be some NFL cuts available that we can scoop up.... we've gotta have some cap space with Nichols off the books for the season!  Get a couple DBs in here now so we can do something about this.  Our secondary just looks like they don't even want to be out there!  Awful tackling, and just flat out terrible coverage.  Uninspiring only begins to describe their play of late!

    NFL cuts are not going to help us, unless it is a guy who has played in the CFL already. NFL cuts who have never seen the CFL game before need to come in and learn the differences in the game. Guess what, the guys on our practice roster were also NFL cuts once, just last year's class. They are actually better off because they have learned our system.

    My thoughts...

    Hamilton played a MUCH more physical game than us, AGAIN... They won the battles in the trenches all night long. If there was a team I'd want to emulate, it would be them.

    Lapo sucks (old news). I hope he gets a head coaching job somewhere else.

    I think our O could benefit from giving Augustine some reps in the second half. I love Harris, but I just feel like he fades at the end of the game a bit. Augustine came in for two plays while Harris went off injured, and looked good. He ripped off a 12 yard reception and a 9 yard run. A little bit of Augustine could be a good thing.

    Has Lucky done anything since week 2? I'd swap him for Bailey.

    Lalwler is good!

    Sub Petermann for Demski. Not sure why we don't see more of Petermann, he looks good whenever he sees the field.

    Hect... just no.

    Bighill just doesn't look like the same impact player this year. If his name wasn't Bighill I'd be calling for him to be benched. I sure hope he can turn it around.

    His head comes up. He takes 2 or 3 steps before getting hit. How many steps does he get to take before he gets hit? 4? 5? 6?

    Not a chance. If he takes 2 or 3 steps, he's faster than the Flash...

    Watching the game on TSN Demand at 1:01:09 the ball is not snapped, at 1:01:10 Rempel is trucked. So according to you in 1 second Rempel snapped the ball lifted his head and took 2 or 3 steps? I think he actually snaps the ball at 1:01:10.

    Rempel actually seems to be in the motion of lifting his head when he gets hit. In my opinion, that's a vulnerable position.

  25. It's time to hand the ball to Streveler.

    And believe me, if there was even the tiniest chance O’Shea or Lapo thought Nichols could get them a couple first downs on the last drive to end the game, they would have kept him in. 

    They didn't take Nichols out because he sucks, they put Streveler in because he's a threat to run with the ball. EVERYBODY knew we were going to run the ball, the D has to respect Streveler's ability to run the ball and can't focus solely on Harris.
