Booch

I bet we get around the same amount again on Thursday

Yeah...certainly no head scratchers there...and will allow some others the all important reps in practice and that final game

Like I said before...I take requests....and do have time to spare this week Like I said since last yr...Save for WJ that I always thought Garbutt brought the best overall skill set at end....man I just hate that Jackson waste all yr as he would have been so much further along if he had 12..16 games already under his belt...Haba too

I think I am now lening thatway...if Not Woods...maybe that Adams...Curious to see the reps he gets and how they use him....he is that versatile Interior guy we seem to like to employ...can play multiple techniques

Until proven otherwise..any returner....nothing in that pre-season game gave me any reason to think otherwise yet....tho it was pretty heavy with newbies....but still

Bastards...well at least Sheed will have 1 solid teamate

yup....It wont all happen in 1 yr for sure...I think Mace is a solid start (For Rider's sake hopefully not overwhelmed like Claybrooks)....AS Dickie was just a total dud....and there was no semblance of any locker room structure there...Marshall gone too will help a lot....and did they jettison any other questionable "leader" types?...But I still think Oday has to be on the hot seat this yr, and they need to really show some progress.....He's now they anchor there pulling them down...As a Bomber fan I hope they just keep re-upping him....But as a realistic observer he needs to go

more apt to slip into lol cautiosly optomistic we may roll with 2 import starting ends, and a Di'd rotation piece...2 import starting DT's and a Canadian back-up DT....Amazingly I hope it's Schmeck's as just maybe there is upside there.....if anything he offers more than thomas now....that gives us a solid 6 guy rotation...now do they Add another Canadian...Thomas?....most likely, as Havnt really seen Samson as being viable yet....And dont see Kornelson or Hubert as being anything as PR depth his yr...Reps on Dline there would be I think a waste...Use it on a National DB type

thy forgot Jon Liu cruising the sideline 😁

considering we dont need a canaduian there save for rotation...fact we brought in some new Dline guys....maybe we may just go that route...would make us a stronger defense...as we are likely to set our roster with Imports....using 2 Imp DT as starters....with say Ford at Corner is 15 Imports...so the 4 di's could be an End...castillo...a returner and one of Gemmel or Moses if one is rostered in Biggies spot...the other is Di'd....Or we use the 4th as a DB...so it is easily workeable yup....sadly its more than likely

He doesn't need reps in the backfield...he does at reciever though

Definitely needed a culture shift there...that's key...I think tho not much will change tho until they punt O'Day too

its not thaaaaat bad....lol I havnt perused the Rider forum since last year...so not sure who is being touted...so...who is?....curious

the Elks starting guys on the weekend took it to the Rider's...if not for al the Elkesque giving away the ball...they would have won handily Agree....Shiltz will do well there, and an actual 1a/1b combo of him and McButterpants might surprise...I can see the Stamps battling for 2nd/3rd with B.C....whom I think really regresse this yr. For all the league wide ballyhoo about Mace and what Riders did...I have a hard time seeing better than 3rd for them, and thats if everyrhing goes right...Harris isn't the guy...who is "next up"...and Oulltte and Hardrick isnt what will put them over....Carney and Thurman are basically interchangeable as to what they had last year...and Mace...is he the real deal?....or Claybrooks 2.0 who also got trumpeted as the next best thing If any team in the West really improved the most, I think it's the Elks..

yeah thats about as weak a top 7 Canadians in the league....if you wre to compare league wide....I dont see a weaker group

I think he was being polite is saying...they sucked lol Back to that front line Canadian depth tho....how is O'day still the G.M???? Unless paying a soon to be 34 yr old Import Olineman the most in the land...on serious decline, and been struggling with injuries the better part of last 2 yrs is the way to sustain employment...I can see another decent out of the gate start there...and the same mid season swoon into the toilet

Yup he is here to allow us not to waste a DI spot this yr....and actually be a threat out of backfield if ignored.....and fill out the ST roster I think as well we will see at least 10 guys deleted prior to the game...they should know by now prety much who the fringe guys are that aren't gonna be kept yeah....Dline guys...if they are athletic, and have good technique can basically be dropped in at any time....it's esiest position to jump right into the fray...

we will have CJOB feed for this weekends game tho on the live stream so thats bonus...no need to sync up

I dont think Godner and Ferland even had a best date really

man....If thats the projected starters....how could one be super excited for that?...Emilus I would take in a heartbeat....Maaaaaybe KSB but as more a depth/rotation guy not as a defacto legit #1 Further cements my thoughts until they show otherwise they be battling the Elks for 4th

yeah...inside and out that dude can play....possibly whattheyhoped with D]Abreau and what I think they envisioned for him....but must like Adams more....I know I do...and I like D'Abreau....so this is win win

I believe they also barely put up 200 themselves...or just over

which was key reason we dominated in 2019...and mostof 2021...then we went away from it for an odd reason

TO BE honest the only real improvement I see is the Oullette for Morrow...Yosh is better than what they had....but is on serious decline and I bet he doesnt stay healthy this yr. The rest of that oline is a collection of turds from last yr, and a whatever recruits they picked up...whichhistoryhas shown are awful an Scevoiur....Don't see that line gelling into a cohesive unti...let alone a dominant one They still have Harris....who won't bring hyou to the promised land, and likely is hurt again, and the defence there....will be adequate perhaps, but don't see it dragging them to a few wins they shouldnt have got due to minimal Offensive out put....thats my take there until proven otherwise I bet CGY surprises many...and will battle B.C when all said and done for 2nd/3rd...I think with Sask/edm it's all about who suffers the least injuries....The Elks def have some players there to succeed

Much to the delight of many if we do I will stop posting here hahaha..That's how sure I am we wont I think that Grainger we just signed could...Wilson possibly too...moves very well....and actually looks like he has the knack for hitting guys when he on the run as well....
