He is getting past his best before date, and if that is the best the Bombers secondary has, then they may be in trouble.

[Blueandgold]

What a start! I hope this is a repeat of the Hamilton game.

[Blueandgold]

That penalty on Hardrick was terrible.. these new rule changes regarding blocking really aren’t football.

Bombers secondary stinks and this is how they will lose their games. To beat the Bombers all teams know you just go deep as often as you can. 

[Fatty Liver]

Impressed with Nevis he looks like he dropped at least 20 lbs.

[Blueandgold]

Is it just me or was it crazy to go for two when our O hadn’t been on the field in hours?

Lots of positives in this one.

Bombers will be OK with Streveler in there. Definitely better than years past. 

May or may not win this one, but they will have good chances in the next 4 starts, considering who they play.

Durant rage retiring looks to be the best thing for the Bombers. Our 23 yr old rookie looks legit.

Not the way you want, but he is getting the experience, which will be useful late this season and next.

After 6 starts, bombers will have a backup with more starts than what most other teams have.

[Fatty Liver]

Fogg had a big game like this in his rookie year, a big return and a couple of picks.

[Goalie]

Fogg looks good on the corner tho

And both games happened to be on his birthday!😂

[Goalie]

Reilly is good. Walker and Williams are also. Good O on Edmonton.

Reilly magic should win this one.

Bombers D is outclassed on this one, but lets hope they get very lucky and can hang on.

[Nickthesizz]

Classic bomber defensive collapse late in the fourth quarter and a quick two and out. Night fellas.

[AKAChip]

Nice to know Richie Hall is the same as always. 

[Super Duper Negatron]

Going to bed. Screw you Richie Hall. I can't take another year of this BS on D.

[White Out]

God, seeing MOS and that god damn **** eating grin of his after watching Hall et all lose another game for this club makes me sick. If MOS isn't willing to get a new DC he can **** right off too. Absolute trash.

[The Unknown Poster]

Sometimes I wonder if Rod Black has ever watched football. 

[bustamente]

We almost won a game that nobody really gave us a chance to be in let alone win.

Basically Bombers are a team with a decent but not great offence and a terrible defense.

Thus is how it has been for 3 years now and it looks like it will not be changing. Without Nichols or Streveler scoring 40 points a game, I dont see this team getting above 4th place in west.

Given rhe lack of a respectable defense, if Nichols is out for long, I stand by the 4 and 14 prediction.
