Any day in Regina is a good day to win, even with all our rookies out in full force. It’s all a matter of pride.

Today I want to watch (through my radio) three things:

Eric Barrierre at quarterback. I want to see if his credentials have anything to do with the Bomber’s future. I fully expect we will have four QB’s kicking around at season open. He might become the new “lady in waiting”!

Chidi Okeke at right tackle. I want to see if he’s the new apprentice that we are hoping for, that might be a key cog in our Hog Heaven. I expect In a better we will be starting Lofton at RT as the season starts.

Our linebacker schemes. I’m assuming Kyrie Wilson will be one of the two middle linebackers in a basic 4=4=4 defensive structure. Outside of Gauther, I want to see who/what else we can put in those middle two spots. Are they going to take a peek at Brandon Alexander there,  or is he just too small? This is the one place that we look just too skinny. This is THE one big challenge for our new defensive coordinator, methinks...

I don’t care how much the coaches say it doesn’t matter who wins. To me it matters, kind of a lot. Beating the Roughie’s will set the tone not only for our rookies, but for our vets at home too. Preseason does matter for a lot more than just player evaluation.

Wow, we look terrible. I know we have a bunch of rooks in there but show some character & keep fighting. The Bombers look like they've given up.

Holy crap does every play have to be “brought to you by” something?! Onfield measurements, injuries.  

They looked good then barriere came in and it’s been downhill since. Has he moved the ball 30 yards? A QB who can’t pass or run it seems.

This rider radio crew is garbage...

Kinda says a lot to me that we have guys like Moses out now.

What does it tell you lol that there are other guys to get reps ?

Rivers with a sack he’s been good too. 

Now Liam Dobson playing DE

Nice sack by Liam Dobson on defense! 
 

also that colour comment "he was so offside he might still be offside next play" was actually gold 

Liam Dobson has changed positions and races 

Lol...Dobson

Moses barely got a quarter as a raw rookie though. You’d think they’d give guys like that a lot of reps.

I missed the first half. How did Streveler look?

Maybe our brain trust like what they saw...and parked him now to not get injured...he was Definitely one of the standouts

Good...first series was off...after that he was solid

Wilson in at QB after the break

Strev looked good. Barriere is not that.

That’s exactly what I’m thinking. I suspect he will get more reps next week with team one or closer to it.

sure should be. 

honey I shrunk the Mike Chris Ike

I thought they made pulling the QBs leg from behind illegal...or did I completely hallucinate that?
