Looking back I’d have to say Fred Reid comes to mind as a phenomenal runner. So many times when he got to the second level he flat out made defences look terrible with his speed. I think Oliveira has improved a lot from his early games where it looked like often ran straight into the pile as fast and hard as possible. He showed patience and an element of craftiness that made his power running even harder to stop.

Yes! The other Muamba was the most consistent safety I’ve ever seen. How he never ever failed to be three steps too late was f***ing mindblowing.

Darvin had a real down game when it came to catching the ball. Easy to see he wasn’t happy with himself at all. Hopefully an off night and not a trend.

Trevor Harris has always been Mr.June & July… Season starting in August was automatic write off for that guy

Blue wave cresting high Elk flex is so, so stupid Biggie gets last laugh

As Booch said, Elks putting in Sir Vincent Rogers could hurt them more. Guy hasn’t played in almost three years. Would skip the fry pan straight into the fire that is the Bomber’s d-line

Suitor was especially insufferable, with it being a Bomber home game. Suitor: ”Cody Fajardo could have a great game today, because his neighbour’s dog only peed on his lawn twice last week etc etc etc” Neilsen: ”Richie Hall has had his defence dialled in all season!” Also Suitor: ”yeah they’re ok, I guess”

Stuck in Jason Kenney land, but thank you

Ugh TSN is 90% all talk about Sask 🤮

Late to the party but I’ll also add just how much I enjoyed the game and resultant Bomber victory yesterday. Sure it’s irksome but we’re talking about a Rider home game on Labour Day weekend, so the (literal) mouth-frothing green mob always takes centre stage, and the broadcast follows suit(or). Dominant D, the effective O, and mainly-meh-but-not-ultimately-costly special teams play totally outmatched Sask. Pretenders got thrashed in their own barn and it was ******* glorious. Bombers players knew how much it cut deep. Outside of beating them in the playoffs, I can’t remember so thoroughly revelling in green tears and handwringing. I was screaming at the TV “ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!!” as rider fans poured out with a minute left. The looks my wife gave me you’d think I was a vampire rolling around in a tub of green blood. Anyways can’t wait for next Saturday. Carry on!

One guy who happens to be from Japan couldn’t cut it and now Speedflex has labelled them all bad. Sure Yamasaki missed a ton but at least he didn’t make a trick shot video that cut you to your core??

Man I missed these… time to finally contribute: Hamilton talks big Blue Bombers just hit harder For the W

Wilder jr is basically the Duron Carter of CFL running backs… ego is defeating his potential

Already put him on the idgaf/ignore list… the silence is golden

I respected Bowman for a long and productive career... but after hearing him repeatedly and classlessly unload on Andrew Harris as a cheater... got no time for the guy Also wanna add that the image of Hardrick about to level Bowman is 🔥

Fired up the credit card for two copies. One for me and one for my folks, because that’s what a good son does.

The main difference being that The Beaverton knows it’s just for laughs... whereas everyone just laughs at Derek Taylor’s straight faced green nutlicking idiocy

Sorry but hard pass on Hunter. He’s good for a game-changing penalty almost weekly. Guy is a train wreck in terms of discipline.

Definitely earned every dollar, enduring shitty day after shitty day...

Pretty sure he was quoted as wanting to do something different, as he’d been the receivers coach for 12 straight years in Cgy. Plus it gives him another cfl level coaching position on the resume for when a coordinator job opens up. Also suspect his input on scheme and game days will be highly sought after - which might be pretty different from his (not bad just not evolving) time with the Stamps.

I think the lucky breaks evened out in the WF... that surefire Sayles interception at the 5 yard line that tumbled into the Rider receiver’s hands was also pretty f.ucking lucky!

This. Our current regime always seemed stuck in maybe-next-year territory when going head to head with the Stampeders. This year? 3-1 Bombers for the season including a brilliant WSF victory!

That’s interesting - would imply that his foot/ankle injury is healing well.

I think it’s more a matter them working but they just haven’t announced anything major, as opposed to lying on the couch in fur coats and a drunken stupor. Bombers won the last game of the season while most other organizations had three plus weeks to get the gears turning on their off-seasons. With the vast majority of the other coaching positions filled, I’m confident we get our front office sorted and then the player signing announcements will be flying out of the PR office.

I dunno, as mentioned the Bombers are unbeaten as playoff “visitors” at IGF West... AND, kicking green @ss in their barn while taking the high road is just so damned satisfying!
