Booch

Hasn't really worked for 5...2 maybe...the last 3...not so much If not for the wind fluke in mtl...and Maces crappy coaching in west final there would be no 5 cup appearances Also the 2021 win we escaped...if not for the brain cramp to give up that single ....Hamilton wins with a fg with no time left

I've never said that actually...I said tge culture started from Miller on down tho...Miller had a vision of what he wanted...osh sold him on being guy to carry it out...I also said the "culture" wasn't a new idea Osh brought outta nowhere...its how good teams operate...so you musta mistook me for someone else... If anything i took a lot of grief from the osh loyalists here for my claims it's not all "Osh" for our success and how things are done...and have gone on record saying some have left specifically on how osh operates And a couple others early were influenced by teammates to stay when they intended to leave...one of whom was Woli at one point...and i know that as a fact

A lot our guys are...or will vamoose as soon as rookie deal expires.... Then not resign them or let them walk...and start it all over again with our old eroded...and not good enough talent...aka...status quo Rode a stacked in prime roster...and yes some luck...minimal real coaching...lack of player development...zero forward thinking and planning/transitioning unless forced by injury...defection...and a lot of real dumb decisions....with a stubborn HC with bias'...lack of knowing whats going on apparently and a hancuffing Canadian bias to players...and rules...and allowed too much control by g.m and Prez...what did u all expect...I been incessantly raising alarm bells for 2...3 yrs...and was ridiculed for it...I seen this before...played thru it...and yes I do get a lot of privileged inside info....don't always believe media soundbites...and especially whatever comes outta Osh smughole This And that...with a healthy sprinkling of stupidity and not knowing your room Crux of matter...they gave osh too much say in who..what he wanted and essentially eroded what Walters originally gave him...and didnt transition properly...and has a bad eye for talent....and now he has no clue how to fix it...and being stubborn...and not maximizing use of rules and roster he does have compounds it

Can't see it being anything else

we got a biter!

well...to start they can try the guys they have in house first to see if they make a difference...as dear leader claims "they are all starter quality' and "if they in the building they give us a chance to win" so prove it or STFU and find some who can

Yeah I think if the weeks plan has Strev in it all week...and a week of running it he will be fine...Hogan I think is over his head and can't deviate yet mid stream...let alone make in game adjustments...So not too concerned about that...Plus look what he got to work with...not a heck of a lot JY...I think he needs tthe players to run what he doing...and right now he is probably 4 starters shy of that...and doesnt have the rotational peices...and the couple he does are the ones who shopuld be starting...and one is on the "IR" WJ should be spelling off Person and Vaughters and that should eevate his game if not for any reason pride...and we should be scouring every nook and crannie looking for another end....and a true inside plugger Nose...and dont stopuntil we find it....Bailey needs to be on as well for rotation and development for Korn or Thomas...Even Novack as he is basically redundant to all the LB's we employ anyway....truthfully Thomas and his glue pot should be parked on the 1 game if not cut... Kramdi and T.Jones should lose their starter role..Kramdi as depth...T.Jones with the 1 gane injury....and Ayers..J.Jones...Wilson should work at SAM/Mack with one of Grffin or Parker at SAM. Allen and Woodbey...2 guys who just made plays all camp and in both Pre-season games should be given a shot/look....cant be worse than what we seeing....and no reason at all Shay and Smith should not be seeing the field in rotation considering all the subbing we do....which is another thing...we sub way too much and doesn't let a guy get in a groove or figure out what the guy(s) he going up against is doing and to get an edge Simplify the scheme if need be and run a base of 4 5 different looks and sets and excel in them...then install more...pretty sure thats what CGY has been doing and they been owning teams on defence....plus they play athletic guys...the best ones available to them 3/4 of that easily used elsewhere for a playmaker/impact guy and the other quarter to an entry level guy with upside...or draft pick

Yeah...kinda sums up a lot...also tho the reluctance to unseat a vet...hasn't helped...and just gradually eroded us away to where we are...as we didnt draft/recruit or develop...and then play a incumbant/transition piece...ones we did we let walk..and for peanuts really...or ones that needed a bump in pay we refused as we figured we were good and could just use a slug we've held on to...or look like the smartest guy in room and reinvent a retread...and for most part our draft strategy of late has sucked Guys oozing with athleticism and potential we draft we just waste or stunt (Shay..Smith...MCI...Samson..Eli..Rene....even Clercius as if Woli never got hurt he would havnt got a chance)

If we were to just inhouse it for the interm I'd hand it to Darryl Patterson..hes got excellent coaching background...has played under no nonesense coaches ..relatable to the import talent and only bias would be to put best talent out there If he does well...reup him I still say both unsigned is telling...earn that extension Also 11 yrs is longtime in football for a coach and somewhat for a g.m....they all get stale and the message just stops working...just the way she goes...

Kolo...kramdi...Thomas...sterns...case...prob even Wallace...Bridges...T.Jones be hard pressed to start...punter guy...Korn prob doesn't make a roster.... Yup... I honestly had my doubts he was a good coach....leader and influencer...no doubt...but in pro ranks that will wane too....he had success when he finally got good assistants and a stacked roster...wedged between seasons when he doesn't...well it's touch and go You been reading my mind lol

Amazing with your absence you can pin point most our issues...good observations And alot of our wins glossed over the issues...will say it again...we won despite our inadequacies...and it's finally caught up and we need major fixes as opposed to tweeks

Many here lol Agree...They perfect rotational and in game injury depth guys...not defacto starters

par for course tho...and hence...no changes required moving forward

no...he still played....Person got 5 snaps Osh is not a good coach whether anyone believes it or not....Maybe he should be handed the "culture curator guy" role and someone else take control we dont need depth "they are all starters"...and "they in the building cause they give us a chance to win"...what you talking bout depth....DEPTH?!!?...lol yeah sad part is we have guys who just could be the real deal....if anything will be aggressive and full of fire and spit....but good luck they get a chance...so we will never know Just look at CGY....Total turnover on defence...and they whooped are arse 2 straight games...with all our savvy glue and continuity....

yeah case is just an average run of the mill unspectacular guy...if thats our best "depth" piece we need some serious work...he did nothing to earn a spot....looked the same as last yr...and in 2 T.C's....hard pass as much as many love T.Jones and Kramdi....neither are starter quality and have gapping holes in their game...thos are 2 prime examples of guys who would be top notch "depth" guys.....Too bad Osh doesnt see it that way...I'm not for getting rid of them but they arent starters

u deserve to get really drunk my friend...I feel for you

Its an ongoing problem...and like I mentioned too many guys are wayyyy to comfortable knowing they will not get yanked...let alone sat a game or 2....but thats what's needed here if for anything to see what we have....and or put some fire back in the belly of some these mainstays.....or if the "depth" can actually play and if not then get some that can....It also goes for Osh.....he has no fear of anything/job security himself so just does his thing with not a care in the world. He is slowly ruining a real good team that was gifted to him for 2019-2022 whether people wanna believe it or not with how he's handling things...and how he coaches/what he thinks is important...past success aside he should in now way be safe ....and not held accountable from above...now way in hell 2 games now have been basically over by mid 3rd quarter....did we see back-ups in to actually get reps not in the pointless last 2 mins of a game?....nope Did he pull loafers/dumb penalty guys/underperformers ?....nope Did he practice the 2 point convert on late TD's in each game so we had live reps for when it might really matter?....nope Did he practice the onside kick for the same purpose...live rep practice?....nope He added an actual rush end for a dline that was again getting no pressure or push and to keep the 2 30+ guys fresh....nope...not gonna say 5 reps was useful rostering Did he do any savy gambles.....challenges....use of rules afforded to him...nope, tho he did use 1 challenge but coulda pulled it outta his shorts again Did he have answers to anything going on during the game....and in questions afterwards?...nope Is he gonna make any significant changes for next game that an injury doesn't dictate?...not likely and based on his post game babble he aint changing anything on how they do busines Related to the last point...coming off a bye,,....where we just played a team...watched more film on them last week and should have been prepared....healthy.....motivated and coached up...were we??....again nope That my friend's and colleagues is poor coaching....piss poor really....and the beat goes on...status quo we will roll...and likely to 4th place and outta play-offs Yes there a lotta season left and we are 3-2....but this has been season's in the making...the erosion...country club attitude...the belief things will work out and not truly coaching up the team...based on looking backward and not forward...failing to land any significant free agent because we don't know when...how...or where to upgrade, and this insistence on not putting the best team we could on the field game in or game out...or at least trying to find the right pieces we may have in-house, so all is not lost....yrt....but a lot needs to happen for the season to turn around....and be succesful at the end .....we shall see how it goes But hate to say I told you so....but......we almost there....flame on me all you want but it is what it is...and was totally avoidable

Nope...we don't need 3 Canadian interior dl...especially when 2 are piss poor

Yeah...he didnt do anything impressive...was exactly as his 4...5 games last yr...if that's best we can find...or are happy with that...we in for long season

And we look at Mitchell for Case then see who offers more to offence Yeah I heard that...like really?? Not just Jake...really Jones...Bridges...should be swapped out...Kramdi shouldn't be the starter....Korn shouldn't be on roster

I assume concussion

Well I can assure u it will be exact same roster...that much we know

Pathetic coaching...I guess we just that good at it no need to Oh but he has lotsa tackles!! Lol

Cause we have a smug coach who sees it his way...and rarely admits fault...coukd be part of it Its called evaluating talent over "intangeables" and "coaches favs" that's how

No sense practicing the 2 point convert i guess...like really?
