  1. At least one of them is a junior player which doesn't count.
  2. If they need to replace someone on the 44 man it doesn't have to be Bond or Hardrick. The Bombers could tell the league they are doing an emergency roster adjustment so they can suit up someone from the practice roster. This is a home game so they have access to these players if needed. They did this earlier the year for the Banjo Bowl when Loffler was a last minute scratch.
  3. I imagine the rule is in place so teams don't try to circumvent the trade deadline. Say for example the Bombers now need a Sam to replace Leggett. Then another team like the Als that are out of the playoffs just so happens to release an all-star quality Sam that the Bombers proceed to sign. Then in the off-season the Bombers and Als make a deal that heavily favours the Als as compensation for the Sam they released.
  4. He's going to handle it internally.
  5. I didn't see the replay, but didn't Awe nail Harris with a helmet to helmet hit?
  6. I had to laugh that with all the Riders pre-planned TD celebrations that it was the REDBLACKS that got the penalty for taking too long to celebrate.
  7. Check out Glenn after the game. Doesn't look like a guy that would inspire his teammates. Can anyone imagine Nichols acting like this?
  8. Collaros is signed for next year still under the existing deal. If he gets traded I can see it where Hamilton' s trading partner gets to talk to Collaros and his agent before the trade is finalized to be able to re-work his contract.
  9. I have Pierce and Willy jerseys that I didn't get much use out of. That being said my next jersey will prolly be Nichols. I have a Harris that I haven't worn all year as I'd been wearing a Brock jersey and the team has been playing well at home so I didn't want to change it up. I think I'll sport my Harris for the rest of the season however as he goes for 1000 / 1000. Adams would be another good choice. He's under contract for another 2 years.
  10. Fans can now bring in umbrellas that are 18 inches or smaller. You just can't use them while in the stadium but they shouldn't be confiscating them.
  11. The 1981 Alouettes signed Billy White Shoes Johnson, Vince Ferragamo and David Overstreet. Only Overstreet street was a 1st rounder but the other 2 were established NFLers.
  12. Yeah, it's crazy. They brought back RB Joe Craig 2 days ago and then released him today. I understand a team wanting to constantly improve their team but are players really being given the fair opportunity?
  13. The Riders' transactions will probably take up 2 pages tomorrow. They have a few players that are due to come off the injured list but may also add up to 8 from last week's game. I have no doubt most if their injuries are legit, but my question is what do they do with all the players when guys start to come off the 6 game,
  14. I haven't seen anything that mentions LeFevour is signed past this season. FYI, Davis is signed for 2018 and Nichols is signed for 2019.
  15. Last year he went after the CFL's drug policy. Problem is he went on and on about it for a couple of months that it all became white noise after a while.
  16. Yeah, the way they go on you'd think their team as been a dynasty for the last decade. Reality is they have won 2 Grey Cups since the Bombers last won. While that's 2 more than the Bombers it is still less than the average. BC, Edmonton, Calgary, Toronto and Montreal have all won more Cups since 1990 than the Riders.
  17. Card is from a set that the Winnipeg Police issued in 1982. I've got a few sets myself and I remember as a kid I got most of them signed.
  18. I think Paul Boudreau should get some credit for that as well. I don't think its a coincidence that he was a coach for the 2014 Rams team that pulled off the same play. https://www.bluebombers.com/2017/09/09/bombers-go-to-the-bag-of-tricks-for-six/
  19. Knox 3 times on the ceiling if you want me ........
  20. Kinda like when the Bombers declared Goltz as their starter for the rest of the season. I read different reports after the Lions game. Wally was quoted as saying Lulay deserves to be the starter and someone else had him saying he had to check with the other coaches first.
  21. I wonder if the league's change to only 1 challenge a game has affected Jennings and Reilly more than other QBs. Perhaps DBs were more tentative before and Jennings was able to compete more of those long balls.
  22. If he was serious and if the Riders really wanted him they could have worked something out. He could have signed for two years like all rookies do but at some point the Riders could have put him on the practice roster. Then when he is added to the active roster he signs a new one year contract.
