Because it was too helpful?

That's annoying of them.

Why is AM not on the Bombers PR from the website?

i know what MOS plan, sit KJones and put McCalister in so we are going to carry 5 DEs. 

Either Roh or McCalister has a “special assignment” to take out Fajita. MOS will shoulder the fine. 😂😂😂

So, if they've released Santiago, does that mean Augustine is flying solo - no backup? This seems like a risky move to me, RBs get hurt all the time.

It’s a real grind, man.

I don't know what shape he's in but they could give Flanders a call.

We will see tomorrow. Only Flanders makes sense to bring in since he knows the O. Maybe Rose III too, the guy from TC.

Other than that, any guy the Bombers  bring in will not be on the lineup on BB since they only have 2 days of practice.

Yeah, the transactions page was a lot easier to follow before this year. 

They also don't indicate anymore when a player is due to come off the 6 game injured list.

Injury must be somewhat serious...or staff realized they good with Johnny..and know we have Oliviera as well at some point this year...when all healthy i wouldn't mind seeing sets with Johnny in backfield and Harris doing the hybrid RB/Slot thing..

Oliveira won’t be back this season.

[Booch]

Has that been said?

They did this last game too though (no backup RB) even with Santiago available. Obviously Harris will be back for our next game so I guess they aren't too worried. I don't know what they do if Augustine gets injured in the first series of the Banjo Bowl though.

Santiago was hurt the last practice day. So he was not available.

Santiago was hurt on Friday, so he wasn't available.

Looks like Nichols will be out for the rest of the season. ☹️

I feared as much. I guess the rest of the season will tell whether we attempt to go forward with Streveler next year or have to start from scratch in the off season. Either way I wouldn't bring Nichols back unless at a big discount to be a backup. I love the guy, but I think he's done.

Also, thanks for explaining the situation with Santiago. I was not aware.

[M.O.A.B.]

On the bright side, that would be free-up more cap space... would be wise to surround Streveler with more weapons...

Although I doubt it will happen, and also if Lapo will utilize them. 

Oh boy.

Are the Bombers cursed? Maybe...

I mean its likely true but when has Friessen ever been a source of news? Stadler and Waldorf level group but breaking news guy, not so much.

[Jpan85]

Well not all of the season

 

[Geebrr]

Friesen tried to sabotage the Harris PC by putting Nichols on the spot about his injury and was shut down.

This is just his new avenue to attention

So you're saying... Friesen works for the Bombers now? 😂

Also, he has already been put on the shelf until possibly game 16. So, some real strong reporting here.

Well I would hardly call it reporting because we all know it's just Friesen raking the muck because he is perpetually POed about his lack of access to info. However, Nichols 6 game would expire after game 15 but initial reports were he may be back sooner than that..
