ediger Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 nice turnout by Canada's best fans. Favourite part about the Rider's sucking is now you can see how ******* ugly their stadium is. Seriously, whoever came up with the idea for the multicoloured seats has the creative eye of a fruit bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBURGESS Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 I didn't realize how many players Hamilton has on the IR. Yikes. Too late to change my pick? Yah I know it is. Goalie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlue4ever Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 The more I watch Hamilton's secondary and Ottawa in general, the more I want us to tank and get 4th place so we can waltz into the grey Cup on a crossover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlue4ever Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 Wow, 3rd and inches and they call Hamilton on illegal procedure because the centre tips the ball up before the snap. That is the most mickey mouse call I have ever seen in 35+ years of attaching football. SPuDS and Tracker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bustamente Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 Never seen that call before but he did tilt the ball and move it forward ever so slightly, also Austin if he contacted the official should of been thrown out of the game.

It really is a serious problem. I don't know how you fix it... There's just too much to fix. It was a great league until some idiots tried to embrace technology with stupid humans involved.

I OLs were getting away with a lot of cheating and they rightfully have clamped down on it. I should also point out the amount of procedure was drastically reduced in the last number of years when they decided that the OL was not automatically called for procedure when they moved in response to early DL movement. I can tell you from experience that always sucked having to sit there like a target while some DL teed off on you or took a run at your QB. That was what what was expected.

But that wasn't procedure where an OL left his stance early. It was a center adjusting the ball. No one moved. The OL were still in their set positions behind the ball. The Rider center was moving the ball the same way & was never called. All centers do that. For some unknown reason the line judge decided to call it. I don't blame Austin for being enraged on the sidelines. That was the only time they called it as well. Strange call. TBURGESS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon37 Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 You can move the ball up until set then you can't. Once set you can't move anything, the ball included. Most centres go into stance, adjust the ball, then look up all before set is called after that they don't move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you're saying the Hamilton center didn't do that? It looked fine to me & everybody else. The Al Bradbury crew is maybe the worst, well maybe the second worst to Kim Murphy's. It came down to interpretation... again... of the rules. No consistency at all. Other officials wouldn't have called it. This ref did. The other thing, I think I've seen that call being made we'll say, once in a blue moon. Of the 500-600 snaps this weekend, the thousands so far this season & the tens to hundreds of thousands of snaps made in the last decade & more, why isn't this penalty called more often?? It just doesn't happen because the officials allow some discretion for the center to comfortably grip the ball. It was a cheap call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon37 Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 When set is called there is to be no movement. If you see it you flag it. That's the rule. Winnipeg got called for pointing this year and they are about the only ones that I have seen and in the replay you see it and it was clearly during set.

That's all it is. Some refs call it, others don't. You can quote the rule book verbatum until the cows come home but it makes no difference as 2 officials will look at the same situation & call it differently. That is what's so frustrating about CFL officials these days . Edited September 25, 2016 by iso_55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
