We are already playing a canadian at his position although not a good one so he really dosen't help the ratio unless we want 9-10 canadians in the starting lineup and not win another game ever.

It must be very easy for opposing defenses to prepare for the Bombers O, half day of practice is about right

yup. no other reason for messem to get going like he did other then our defense simply burning out. he was prettt contained up til what.. mid third? Pretty much, its tough to tackle with tired legs especially a load like that.

^^^^ THIS You need to start right at the very top to clean house this time, or else the result will be just the same... What will cleaning house now do? It won't salvage the season; It won't bring back Willy; It won't change the fact the Blue lack Canadian talent. This is a process these guys aside from Bel-FAIL deserve another year wit ha healthy Willy and solid qb and some Canadians maturing specificlly Gossen on the o-line. This seaon was over after last weeks game now it will be a string of blow outs wit ha win or two sprinkled in to give us fans the faint hope that things will get better but there is no quick fix and that is sad but true. Don't forget these guys are cleaning up Mack's mess, which is akin to cleaning up a nasty oil spill! First if all i said nothing would probably happen till after the season was over. Why is it ever year we don't have quality canadians on this team?. A quick turnaround can happen if you have the right people steering the ship, we don't.

When your offence is constantly going 2 and out it takes a toll on the defense as the game wears on the defense more than the offence. That extra push gets diminished, legs get tried of chasing when your on the field for so long, you need that offence to take 5- 6 minutes off the game clock.

Free Agents will get to the point of no thanks to the bombers if this circus continues and if Henoc makes up north why o why would he play here.

The Bombers have to realize that they are in the entertainment business and by putting this type of product in the field they are going to hurt their bottom line, not this year because the Grey Cup will probably save them but next year the season tickets sales are going to take a pounding. When the most entertainment at Bombers game is at the Rum Hut and people are not even interested in the game you've got a big problem.

The last 2 years have been trying but today was the low point for me because i held out hope that this regime knew what they were doing and in the end it hit me like a ton of bricks that these guys don't have a clue. Same bad coaching decisions, bad penalties, players who shouldn't be here and last of all no respect for the fans and paying customers. From top to bottom they tote the company line and it's a complete embarrassment. They think because they played the game at a high level that any crap that comes out of their mouth is to be believed. Arrogance at its's highest form.

BOD replaced, Wade Miller fired, Walters fired, MOS fired. Rest of coaching staff gone. The only one who has done anything is Richie Hall. He has taken a defense that started slow and was inept and has molded a above average d, still a work in progress but a least there's progress. Have a feeling none of this will happened till after the season unless there's some token sacrifice, Pat Tracey i'm looking at you. No I think it will be statue quo for the rest of the season. I hope i'm wrong but this horror movie is far from over. And by the way i don't want to hear we would have won if Willy would have played, they would have killed us if Durant would of played.

I see, we just play with 2 less players overall...leave those positions blank.Well, there is a certain logic to that. The "il" logic. Goosen and Newman don't make anywhere near starters money so you can find a couple of backups no problem not everyone in the CFL makes big coin. Money that was not spent wisely in the off season.

I'm sure they could find a backup somewhere, Calgary seems to have no problem finding backups for all OL positions.

Well, we don't know the reason Lemon didn't sign with us, now do we? By the way, the money we saved by not getting Lemon, is on the table now.. They would saved some monies by not paying Picard and Hurl's salary, but they still would have to pay 2 starters at those positions in any event, so the savings would be less, and at least one of them would have to be an NI, so there's that.And... Penton, who even knows more than CapGeek, says the Bombers have lots of cap space remaining, and are pursuing Muamba. Already had players on the roster to put in those position. Goosen at centre and Newman at outside linebacker. I wonder what excuse the bombers willl give if they don't sign any guys coming back up north. There's lots of time left this season and they should if possible be trying to improve this team on both sides of the ball.

Keep in mind that a centre who can't block nor snap consistently anymore is getting $200,000 all in. And that's one of the reason's we couldn't get Shawn Lemon and might prohibit us from bidding on future free agents this year. The bombers are probably tapped out with some of the summer free agent contracts they gave out. They didn't need Picard or Hurl that's an easy 300k that they could use now to help either side of the ball.

If you want Henoc here you gonna have to over pay, believe he'll want to play in the east and if dollars are the same that's where he goes. Also i would not pay him anywhere close to 250,000 that's just way to much for a lb.

Loyalty is very rare in sports today, hopefully his time here meant something to him but i doubt it and i dont blame him

3-4 problem solved

Isn't he like 23 2421 played one year USHL was draft eligible put up a lot of points played on the line with a Jet draft pick. Let's see what he does with the young guns next week, nothing really to lose if anything could be a good project player

if he wants to sign a long term contract great, if he's looking for the rest of the year only see ya. He won't help get us into the playoffs this year.

Love to see him back but Bombers are a bad team at the moment and he'll be looking for big cash. He also might want to play closer to home.

Highly optimistic

Even if he doesn't get another sniff in the NFL, get the feeling he won't come back here

Agreed both will Jets in the future, they will not be rushed, just continue to learn and get better.

Kosmo will be in the AHL this year, still has a way to go. Lemieux will go back to juniors for another year, definitely a very good prospect future Jet down the road.

Was he not given a bonus that counts against this years sms

The price tag of our free agents must of been higher, bryant , picard, westermen, hurl, and resigning willy cost us a pretty penny
