Game Day Thread - League Opener: Eskies

If the lightening threat is so scarey then how come nobody is running off the field ? Lol.......

I'm not sure how anyone can blame richie for those plays. Db was there...the right call was made. Players need to make plays. Randle wants to be an all star....be one.

Rum hut is closed ?......wow am I glad I skipped this game

I would tend to agree. Potential. Lapo needs to simplify things tho and run more. 

D not so good in 1st Q tho. 

I thought the defence was good aside from the one jump ball and Randall was right there. 

Awesome job by strev getting us that second td. That’s huge.

On CJOB they said it should quit within 30 minutes.

Streveler needs to pull one of the read options and take off wide. He has tons of space.

CFL tweeted it’ll start at 11:40

[bryan35]

Why close the rum hut ?

From @GerryModdejonge: “At this rate Matt Nichols will be available for the second half.” Ba-da-dum #Bombers

I’m loving it ... had to jet to work but I’m sure I’ll catch the end of the 4th quarter when I’m off at 7 this morning.

Not terrible so far. The delays and weather conditions actually help the Bombers.

Defense has some issues, not sure yet if they are that much better than last year. Concern that Bighill is already hurt. Why are Bomber players just not as tough and robust as the rest of the league? Training or prep not there? Or is it just too many players on the downside of their careers?

Streveler has been better than I expected and there is upside because he will get better. Bombers still in tough to win this one, but not embarrasing themselves...

[Brandon]

Streveler definitely has shown more upside then so many of the guys they have had over the years.   

For comparison....  Goltz only tossed 3 td's in 4 seasons with us.....

This favors Bombers on my opinion.

[Captain Blue]

Does TSN bother to wake Rod Black up for the second half? 

[bustamente]

Mass still a pissy *****

It’s bad when I’ve switched from beer to coffee!!
