The interception in the end zone and the Alouettes conversion on 3rd and 5 were the two key plays for the Als tonight. Collaros and Parker deserve a good amount of flak for sure.

I don’t think the punter was the problem this year. His average of 47.2 is not far off the 47.6 that led the league among full-time punters, and I bet his net yardage ranks even higher. He has a weird technique for sure, but it’s pretty effective. As far as special teams go, I think the biggest issue this year was Castillo’s distance on kickoffs.

That’s interesting. I thought it only happened on scoring plays. I can recall a few times where plays could have been overturned had it been automatically reviewed.

Why was that automatically reviewed?

The one near the sideline where the ball hit the turf? I don’t think that had a chance of being overturned tbh.

The play definitely could have and should have been challenged.

Did the Bombers challenge anything tonight? I don’t recall such an instance, but I may be wrong.

Show me the rule that says so. That is simply false. You are 100% wrong.

Not true. In fact it’s easier to challenge in OT because you don’t need a timeout.

You can challenge scoring plays.

True, but it still should have been reviewed internally and challenged by the Bombers.

Hard to blame the refs when the Bombers could have challenged it though.

Why the Bombers didn’t challenge the Riders’ convert is beyond me…

1. Brady 2. Sergio 3. Demerio HH Paredes for missing TWO field goals HH 2 Hakunavanhu for dropping the easiest ball of all-time on what should have been a sure touchdown

I wouldn’t place the blame on the kicker in this case.

Not sure about 3 stars but I must add that our o-line is just AWESOME.

I’m only getting audio on the TV.

I suppose both could be argued to be offside, but I digress. Great win nonetheless.

It was within a second of the snap of the ball though. Since when does silent count matter? Offensive linemen are taught not to move at all within a second of the snap of the ball, hand signals included.

Gotta say, we were lucky not to be called for offside on Schoen’s touchdown catch. The centre clearly moved his hand just prior to the snap of the ball.

This hasn’t been a very well-officiated game, both ways.

What a play by Biggie.

1. Oliveira. He is starting to ressemble Andrew Harris more than Bloi-Dei Dorzon. 2. Rose. Arguably his best game in three years. 3. Liegghio. Having a surprisingly amazing year. HH - clutch penalties by the Als I have a lot of crow to eat tonight…

Prior to Collaros’ arrival I always thought the biggest thing holding us back from winning a championship was the QB (Mr. Game Manager Nichols’) play. I commented on it many times and was torn to shreds for it, which is funny to look back on now. Collaros’ record speaks for itself. What an incredible acquisition that was.

It’s what happens when guys try too hard to get picks. Happened a lot last year too.
