Don't know what to expect here. But refuse to believe, given all the talent they lost, Riders simply buckle chin straps and win.

All eyes on Freddy Plesius at MLB, Cary Koch at WR. ex Rider Butler at safety.

Curious to see how Collaros fairs as the official "guy" as well

Took the Riders to win. They lost some big pieces but they can still get after the QB and Hamilton's line isn't that strong to begin with.

Windy , rainy as hell in Regina so no air show and prolly lots of turnovers,

No joke

 

Those who thought yesterday's games were sloppy, you ain't seen nothin yet.

I got the RIders winning still. Too many pieces still there... that being said the rest of the week has been pretty unpredictable. 

Regina has lost some big pieces after they stuffed the Cap last year in a successful drive for the Cup last season. Their leftovers are still pretty good.

 

Clements is going to do something with the Cats but I see no signs of it yet.

 

I am guessing that McManus was right in recommending Willy over Collaros .... replacing Burris is the right long term move but as far as we know Hamilton only acquired a very average QB

 

I will be surprised if Regina doesn't win and not surprised at all if they win by a lot

 

Regina is still in the top half of the teams ... Hamilton is a Wannabe

Uh, "Clements" ?

Uh, "Clements" ?

Sorry AUSTIN ... brain fart from alternate universe

Took a 6 win team with a league record for roster turnover then the Guelph thing and took them to Grey Cup. Dont have to love him but give him a peck on the cheek at least.

Clements lol

Go Riders!

It's a Win Win situation for me personally, from how I see it.

 

If the Ticats lose, just means the East is 0-3 this week and the possibilities of 2 crossover teams from the West loom larger.

 

Ok ok, I doubt we pitch 2 teams over into the East's spot, but I will be willing to bet you at least 1 team from the west does cross over.

 

Plus, take it as you will, that Ticat team just did not impress me last year and I had the feeling they were going to get clobbered in the Grey Cup, though to be honest with you probably nobody woulda beaten SSK that day.  But still, took the Ticats luck to beat a MTL team with an interim HC, a carousel of QBs and all in their back yard.  Then of course the Argos just were off their game the next week.  Anyhow, I just don't think they're going to be so lucky this year.

 

But if the Riders lose .... Well that's always a good thing.

Not taking anything away from austin but... calvillo out all year pretty much, ray missed significant time, winnipeg sucked. not really much competition from the east last season. 

Actually, the 'Cats would have lost to Montreal for the blatant pass interference call at the end of the game that wasn't called. That was why the rule was changed this year so it could be challenged. If that rule had been in place, it's first down on the one for Montreal, they most likely score, and win the game.

it was academic. Burris is a fair weather qb, always has been, that's why he got shipped out of Calgary. Expecting him to do anything outside in November was expecting too much. He was fortunate that he got to play inside in the east playoffs. 

 

A team with a better cold weather qb could have beaten the riders, but Burris packs it in when things get tough.

Yes, If things werent the same they'd be different.

if the weather in regina is even remotely close to what we have been getting here the last 2 days going on 3 now, probably tomorrow too, this game is gonna be ugly to watch.

For the Regina weather report, currently it is all out downpour, and there is no break in the clouds to be seen.

Wow must really be bad there - is it still raining?

Is this game actually going to happen?

Just checked the weather network and it's 'hourly' forcast has it raining in Regina right through the night. Good question GBill - guess we'll find out how good the drainage is on the field. 

Is this game actually going to happen?

Crazy you can actually see a live cam on that from the radio feed.  You can see out on the field and there's people moving around out there but the stands are well empty.

Anyone have a live feed for this game?

Already fans on facebook page rationalizing the potential empty stadium as "solely based on weather and no reflection on fanbase"

I mean, other then being raging thunder pansies..
