Colin Unger Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 1 hour ago, Noeller said: Being told the issue is connected to the interpretation of the new American vet ratio of 3 🇺🇸 starters having to have played 3 seasons with same team or 4 in #CFL. @CFLonTSNhttps://t.co/5RALolnAzU Doesn't really surprise me. This seems like a rule that is destined to be taken advantage of by crafty teams. How exactly they plan to prevent teams from having a Canadian player go down to an "injury" when they aren't really injured is going to be key. How badly injured to they need to be? I would think that at the very least when an import vet comes in for an injured Canadian that player should not be allowed to re-enter the game and needs to miss the next game at the very least.

Mr Dee Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Then Derek Taylor throws out this little stat...I don’t have an overwhelming range of stats for LBs, but Konar missed 23% of his tackle opportunities in last two seasons. Average for a LB is about 15% Noeller, Colin Unger, Fred C Dobbs and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it enforced? Do we need to make officials jobs more complicated? Do imports who qualify get a sticker on their helmet or what?

There's already issues where teams will fake injuries to get the bombers out of their hurry up offense. Now you can fake an injury to get another american starter.

The fact that the rule makes it so that is a potentially viable strategy at all makes the rule extremely stupid. Bigblue204 and Atomic 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well imagine a scenario though where we are starting Jake Thomas and he comes out of the game with a minor injury and Drake Nevis goes in. How eager will Bombers coaching staff be to re-insert Thomas back into the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madani tries SO hard to crap on the sport in general at every possible turn, yet enjoys following it quite closely. Amusing.
