Taynted_Fayth Posted May 7, 2018 Report Posted May 7, 2018 Well.... roster cut down day comes and instead of pink slips Huffs handing out RRSP pamphlets with the words "See you soon" inside. I would hope there is a provision in place that would force a player who declares "retirement" in a year to at the very least forfeit their eligibility to resume playing that year or these rash of retirements is nothing but a joke loop hole to roster # management bigg jay and Bigblue204 1 1
johnzo Posted May 7, 2018 Report Posted May 7, 2018 Buckley's going to med school, per the article. Doesn't sound like sneaky roster management. Congrats to Buckley on his med school admission and all the best to him in his next act. Winning a couple Hec Creightons while doing pre-med in university, that's a pretty serious accomplishment, deserves respect. Jaxon, Bigblue204, Al Bundy and 9 others 10 2
Colin Unger Posted May 7, 2018 Report Posted May 7, 2018 He will most be remembered for being the guy who had the ball in his hands rather than Bo Levi’s preference of either himself or Jerome’s hands

wbbfan Posted May 7, 2018 Report Posted May 7, 2018 Looks like lokombo is going back to BC. Feel like we are tight to the cap going into camp. Or to our limit considering PR expansion and air lifts. At the same time I think it wont be too big a problem going forward. We have depth at positions with some larger contracts, (ogopogo, neuf) and a few guys who miss a chunk each year. Either we save money or have some key guys all year. I hope we pick up a big body fb at some point though.
HardCoreBlue Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 Jon Keen: . @BCLions coach Wally Buono says he's "going to be more reckless...try even harder to win," in his last season as Lions HC. Says "what are they going to do fire me?" Adding it would only start his retirement earlier. #CFL Ummm, if I was a BC fan I might not know how to interpret this . . .

jazzsax Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 I think this means Wally might go for it a bit more on 3rd and 1. Reckless for him is pretty much putting ice in his drink.
Floyd Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 Wally's going to go crazy and not cut all his veterans with big salaries...

Mark H. Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 No incumbent left tackle with a pocket passer at QB? Pass the smelling salts...

blueingreenland Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 But you guys know the Riders are winning the Cup, right?!! C'mon
Booch Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Carter both ways is soooooo stupid..he got a gimme pick last year..other times he was beat easily but Qb didn't get ball there.. I just dont get that thought process as if anything hurts them on both sides of ball more than benefits them. Online is gonna be awful there..and no Richardson..seen that coming..he doesnt want to be back in that crap hole rebusrankin and SPuDS 2

Atomic Posted May 11, 2018 Report Posted May 11, 2018 Just now, lyin' guy said: Why? Where to begin? Not one part of that tweet sounds like a recipe for success, aside from Bond at guard. Carter going both ways is a joke. Having that much of a question mark at LT when you are bringing in notoriously shell-shocked Zach Collaros is asking for trouble. Eguavoen is a band-aid. Ojo at field corner is over-paying massively for a spot usually manned by a rookie. A Canadian to start at LB..... and who would that be??? Hurl who we know sucks, or Judge who may or may not suck? He certainly hasn't proven anything. It's more Chris Jones "wizardry" and it's been pretty disastrous so far and I don't see why it won't continue to be.
Floyd Posted May 11, 2018 Report Posted May 11, 2018 Love that a CDN is starting at LB for sask.,,, love it
rebusrankin Posted May 11, 2018 Report Posted May 11, 2018 So the Riders are going 2 OL, RB, WR, LB, DL, S for the 7 NIs? Yikes given that Hurl can't play OLB, it would be Judge or Francis? Edem or MOB at S. Clark on the OL. An aging and declining Rob Bagg.
