Mr Dee Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Simeon Rottier is back on the Edmonton Eskimos' roster after a meeting Tuesday with general manager Ed Hervey, who was informed by the CFL his public criticism of the offensive lineman breached the terms of the collective bargaining agreement. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=431550 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Way to go Ed Hervey. Back tracking because the CFLPA is on your ass. You expect your players to respect you yet you don't respect your own players. Two way street. You'd think he'd get that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquie Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 And it didn't help Hervey's position when the Esks gave up 7 sacks against Calgary without Rottier in the line-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're going to make someone a scapegoat you'd better make sure replacing him is going to actually make a difference. If the Bombers can get 8 sacks against the riders who have a good offensive line what can they do against the esks and their swiss cheese line? Buckle up Reilly, it's going to be a rough game.

And there's still a good chance our offense is inept enough to lose even with a good defensive performance. That's the scary thing about this game.

braddman19 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Or there is a good chance the Defence goes back to it's very Vanilla rush 4 scheme, and doesn't continue on after it had success this week. Blue-urns 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 At least we have lost the role of laughing stock of the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelownabomberfan Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 At least we have lost the role of laughing stock of the league. unless we get blown out by Edmonton this week. Then it's back to the circus. I have to admire Ed Hervey though for so selflessly looking so inept and bumbling this year just to take some of the heat off of us.

robynjt Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 I'll be happy if we destroy their OL... but here's hoping they don't do it to ours as well. The Edmonton DL is pretty strong and kept Levi Mitchell on his toes for at least the first half last game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my concern, as well. Coaches tend to be a very stubborn lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all, still the best avatar/username combo on the site... but I don't know that Burke is that stubborn, his one redeeming characteristic as a head coach is that he's able and willing to learn and change.
