Super Duper Negatron Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 I actually laughed at this on cfl.ca: The scene: A backwoods cabin, far from civilization. A fully-bearded Justin Medlock looks up and stops chopping wood as he spies a dark sedan with a rental car sticker on it creeping up the winding drive. The driver steps out. Medlock shakes his head and smiles a little smile. “Kyle Walters” he says, incredulously. “I told you. I’m out.” With that, Medlock swings the axe and brings it down hard on a log, splitting it right down the middle. “Just one more job, Justin,” says Walters. “Just one more.” TBURGESS, MOBomberFan, coach17 and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_gold_84 Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) It's baffling not only how horribly bad Mourtada is with FG and convert duties but how the Bombers can't find someone better. What gives? And what's Hajrullahu waiting for down south? It looks like NFL opportunities have all but dried up for him.

JCon Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 It can take years and many opportunities for a kicker to catch on. I don't blame Lirim for holding out. Just because he gets released, that doesn't mean a team won't circle back to him. Isn't Maher still pursuing NFL opportunities, as well? wbbfan and M.Silverback 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think we could cut a deal with either where they play here and their agent still kicks tires, if they get an offer we cut em and they go. I think if it comes down to a month and less of football up here a guy like that might be more willing to come knowing he will be cut as soon as possible to pursue a contract down south again.

Super Duper Negatron Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Now I've heard it is a kicker's job, To score three points, and appease the mob, But you don't really care for field goals, do you? Of kicking points we are bereft, First wide right, then again wide left The baffled coach cries "Where is Hajrullahu?"

Stickem Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) Somebody somewhere said that after all of the time Meds. has been away from the game (almost two yrs.) that his hammy's are as tight as a violin string....Might be the case BUT I think he could out kick what we have currently, at least in the field goal dept. with one leg and the other in a cast...Come back Justin Edited October 12, 2021 by Stickem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the most physically prepared K in the league, thats why he lasted and excelled soo long. I wouldnt be surprised at all if he has kept in pretty good shape. I want to say he used to spend 2 hrs warming up and stretching before the stadium opened up every game. Stickem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 he practised and trained all..if not most of the 2020 season/offseason, so he isnt that far removed from kicking wbbfan, Noeller, Tracker and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.Silverback Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Dan Bailey, Kai Forbath ... - worth Kyle Walters asking about them. They've made their NFL money. Maybe they'd come up for less than half a CFL season and a Grey Cup ring? Or after we beat Edmonton this week, make a deal to save Sean Whyte from the Elks implosion. I'm going to be freaking out if we go into the Western Final with Mourtada or Leggio as our kicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Sean Whyte dumped all over us in the past as I recall....He may not pass the smell test.....We wanted him when he shook loose a few years ago and he said that Winnipeg was never going to be on his radar or something to that effect....Have things changed?????maybe and he's grown since then??

JCon Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Keep Mourtada for kick offs. Keeps Lieggs for punting. Do not kick field goals or extra points. Just go for everything. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Negatron Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Maybe we should...and just hear me out...break Mourtada's legs? He might be out for a couple weeks, but come playoff time he will be unstoppable. blue_gold_84, WildPath, Bigblue204 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) Isn't legs a fg Kicker? A pretty good one in the cis who had 1 tough outing? Why not just give him another try at this point and play another American elsewhere Edited October 12, 2021 by Goalie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 MOS may feel like extending grace but if we lose the WF or GC due to that level of kicking, I will not be extending any to MOS and I suspect many here feel the same.

Sean Whyte can rot in Edmonton for the comments he made about us in the past. The stink there suits him well.

He doesn't want to destroy his confidence. I trust MOS on this just wish we could bring in another kicker,any kicker! 😄 What about that donkey from the disney movies is he still around???
