Booch

nobody said fill it....or use assholes....but tis strict adherence to whatever the heck it is that they favour isnt the best roster you can have when it trumps actual talent

we also hold record for losing the most too...and Osh has added to it...there's that way to view it too...getting there is fine and dandy and what you want...I'd rather not get there as opposed to losing it due to repeated stupid things 3 straight yrs...gives zero confidence in future victories when keeping the course with who is leading the show...

but he was a basic unknown...bit of a outlier choice as he really had minimal experience too....As long as you do the homework and don't hire an absolute fool you will be just fine. Osh had really just name recognition in regards to people knew who he was....nothing else really in regards to coaching acumen...A ST coordinator as his only pro coaching job. I wouldn't be concerned if we still have Miller an Walter's at the helm....They not gonna gut the whole upper echelon here....90% of time in sports you start at HC...Unless Walter's has let it be known he is not looking to continue on....and even then very very rare you saddle a new G.M with a HC from a previous faltering regime....so if that's the case then Miller may be filling 2 spots or he has evolved as much as he can, and his way, methodologies and ability to adap and how to structure a lineup t is being left in the dust now....cause a lot of the r3cent failing is based on how we and where we allocate players on roster be it with ratio...vet use....whatever....but it has yr after yr since cup win 2 slowly degraded to one of the weaker across the board units and you are right...h's got complacent and believes he is smartest guy in room again and no need to change...is it stubborn stupidity....laziness....a combo f both....but needs to be rectified either by a change up...or him actually going in a bit of a new direction

In all honesty...Woodbey should get the nod even in his limited games...best defender bar none along with Griffin Holm tho not a detriment has had more suck this yr in games than MODP type play

yeah...if he had any remote shot....he'd been at least brought in for a workout.....but nadda So basically this yr he has earned camp per diem....and then a whole lot of nothing...and isn't developing a bit at home...or wherever he is not being in the Bomber's facility learning and practicing....quite the waste of a season for sure

what cards?....

Looks like he's frustrated with something

Yeah we got beat by a looney MBT/Rookie sex pest combo....The Faj....Arbuckle.....so in all reality it likely doesn't matter who QB's against us as history has dictated...and the reality of all that is in all 3 those losses we were out-coached....out-schemed and essentially out-rostered as we repeatedly dressed injured guys and the usual collection of wouldnt be on any other roster than our's guys....and based on what we have witnessed throughout this season....nothing's changed...Other than we now have a completely incompetent OC to add to the mix

Yip...he will look like Rourke did in my opinion Alexander is still essentially a rookie..he has a ways to go yet but he will be good at end of the day

I could see Ayers yanked..

Lip gloss wins for sure...

As much as a turd as the Vaj can be at times....id take him as a starter over anything we currently have

Mtl I doubt rests guys as they have a chance to still get first...so they will bring their A game and based on what we saw vs edm...and last week and the riders scrubs...Likely trounce us and its off to the east...Likely for another trouncing...I hope for us to be the first team to come out of the east as the crossover..and win at home as Eastern Champs...but I also not delusional either

Cause osh likes him..said was gritty...well that doesn't translate to usefulness Funny...guys deemed "not good enough" and expendable here are good enough to make a winning squad and look formidable...and our "better" replacements and guys who cost less are on a team you can arguably say is one of the bottom 2 in league...us and Ott...Edm plays with emotion and fire...youthful energy and all out for their coach...over here...not sure what we witnessing...a lot of i don't give a F out of some guys...cause they know they safe...some of the coaches too

Well technically DT stats or lack of can be misleading in a good front...dependant on job/role and how it impacts what you doing. Ideally you don't wanna be hiding anyone but on defence you can have your i guess worst starter at safety especially in a traditional role...so technically know your players and scheme accordingly...as opposed to other way around...we fail Badly here at that Offence an undersized or less than optimal center can be easily adjusted for with again the right scheme...protections...like slide protections...shifting launch...multiple run looks...but you also need to have an athletic center too...we fail in system(coaching) here at that as well..but Eli tho not undersized is Uber athletic and as center but used like an undersized guy would be lights out But we have a brain dead HC who can t grasp that...or change

Lol...yeah any stats he gets are rather irrelevant anyway...

He doesn't know how to scheme a game with a weak...or undersized line..there is multiple ways and its quite easy but he just doesn't have the chops...and his reciever routes and scheme doesn't even allow for any chance for a blitz beater or short quick hitters...to help out his qb and oline...all slow developing or clustered with guys all on same level...and worst of all so predictable...nothing works off or plays off anything...no rhyme or reason to his gameplan and its not a shock that more times than not it seems like we forcing stuff into double...triple coverage...teams eat our lunch every game like they stole his playcard That pick before the half..essentially blanketed 2 low..2 over top...I called that pick as soon as recievers broke l.o.s and u could already see sask converge to that spot...easy pickens But I also don't think line is as bad as many think...other than at center...but that's all on Osh and his man love.

Yeah...I willing to give both a chance with a new OC...legit weapons and real coaching. ZC with his limitations now can prob be successful with a scheme and guys to allow him to play within himself Strev as well if he had a OC who knew what to do with him...and what players to augment his skillset could be very effective in a support role But they are basically hung out to dry with this coaching Like last game...not that Cobb was bad...prob one our better recievers in the game...but seeing as we didnt have to replace demski with a Canadian...why not activate Echols and see what he brings...and drop Corcoran right off roster...we know he would bring more than Corcoran...he as well can return...and he would garner attention from the defence...but we just continue with our rigid ratio allocation and "how we do it" cause it worked 5 yrs ago...just poor management of assets Wj had a knocking no?...

Yup...any success regardless how fleeting will just gloss over the real problem..and likely be from BO going off and dragging us there...tho OC numbnutz prob won't use him effectively anyway....or ZC has game or 2 of his life...which now back to back to back is a pipe dream

There is some dissention on several levels....I alluded to it earlier cause yeah...besides what Mr Know it all claims I talk to and work with players and that's what I hear. Interesting some is kinda bubbling out now and some media guys are now hip to it...tells me its obviously getting to a boiling point to some degree And some is carry over from last yr too We are a hot mess and its self inflicted....

U play the talent...the character if not ideal has no impact with onfield play and as a cancer in room...is a nonfacter and the room will deal with it anyway if the room is good From experience guys playing before better players...or as a coach fav...causes more internal issues than anything but players to the media won't touch on it...but if you knkw what you are seeing u can see it. It also effects who will come here...initially guys came...and some stayed for less...3..4...5 yrs ago...not now...there is a reason we habnt really landed a legit big FA stud or an emerging one.....

And I dont see any guys playing with gut hanging out constantly having to pull jersey down...or arse Crack showing as he tippy toes around behind play...so guess that glue has dried right up

Woodbey hands down our best defensive player...actual impact play guy...don't be surprised if he gets an NFL look...and he wasn't rostered immediately why??? Person as well...why he not given lionshare of reps...baffling...but with Osh here won't happen with any rookie or new guy We won..but if the riders had the A team out there we woukd have got ass handed to us...unprepared..uninspired...questionable coaching calls again..this team won't do anything in playoffs...and if we do will be in spite of anything and likely just allows this circus to continue next yr in the same fashion sadly.. Also...not like Cobb lit it up but showed and did more than Corcoran has all yr...he knows spots to sit in..has speed..can return if need be...is experienced...and again he been backseat to useless Corcoran all yr why??? People dumping on walters for be quite during season..and Osh facing the media...that's Oshs damn job but he not even doing that right...deflection..denial...snarky You don't want the g.m saying stuff in season...if he is..things are going bad...not that this isn’t bad..but his role isnt to chirp up...maybe he will give the " vote of confidence" sound bite...which more times than not is kiss of death...so please give it He and his scouts brought in players...Osh sent all packing and ones he kept didnt play immediately...and when finally some get the chance...they better than the hold over crap...imagine...so who knows who else that got the axe over a osh fav/vet could have done better...as some showed real good in camp...but we kept garbage...and well look like garbage...save for a few bright spots...save for BO and Demski all of whom are rookies...again...imagine Shout out to Sheehan...who is will refer to by name as he has done well once he basically resorted back to being a punter and not the crap that made osh get his lil chub... that being said.. he not good at pinning a kick in corner

any player we let walk cause we chaped out to pay slugs...is a cast off....and i dunno....they loaded with ex Bombers who have made them a better team than the current Bombers To say that the ex Bombers didnt upgrade their roster...then why they on the roster Mr Know it all....yeah I talking to u....do tell Guys we replaced all them with here aint getting it done...we a barely 500 club

all players should be putting in hard work and effort....or be gone To say that a guy like JT....Kolo....The Marine when here amoung others put in so much work and effort in that far exceeded what the players with more talent and upside did, hence relegating them to the bench or PR is just a stupid opinion and totally out to lunch Coach here play's fav's...over talent and upside...deal with it sycophants....there is zero defense of it otherwise Guys who "profess" to play the game also have a hot clue and know what goes on in and out of room...said amongst fractions of players....also said to "former" players whom they trust...maybe some former players as well get access to room...facilities and off-season and in season training/maintenance and have a hot clue moreso than a fan who professes to know everything and has a hard time accepting differing opinion or seeing both sides of a coin...looking at you mr know it all...you know who you are Nobody here even said anything about me first guys either....but a roster chalk full of a coaches' wet dream player who has "intabgibles" over talent is not a recipe for success either....as we have seen And as a poster here mentioned...the wau things been done here of late and the lack of a true opportunity does have a big impact on guys not seeing this as choice 1A....IF people here think that we put in no effort to bring in some big FA names they are kidding themselves....We sat on our hands on a few instances thinking we were good, but also struck out on others....The Cats found a way to pay both Lawler and Dobson...they made it work....no reason we couldnt have...and if it meant parting ways with a Kolo....Thomas..Kramdi...Wilson...so be it.... We choose to go cheap...stand pat with outdated players...and are reaping the rewards of that now....so to speak...and this has happened a few yrs running now.. stellar for his 130k...of not more not the sole reason...no....but poster boi for what we do here....But pull him off roster....replace his snaps with a capable guy, and his spot with a new yunger guy with upside...or a younger already established guy hitting his stride...we are a better team Now do that in 2..3..4 other spots...we are once again a great team
