Hey let's not forget that Thorpe played a major role in that come back win against MTL that was a literal turning point for this franchise.

Mike Posted July 21, 2021 Report Posted July 21, 2021 Not too worried about Darvin, if we can’t find a couple stud receivers with two years of scouting then we’re doomed to begin with. Tracker, Stickem and Noeller 2 1

Bubba Zanetti Posted July 21, 2021 Report Posted July 21, 2021 I think Lawler, Bailey, Woli, Demski, and player to be named later can still be deadly. Tracker, wbbfan, Bigblue204 and 2 others 2 3

You don't like Bailey, Whitehead and Lawler as good recruits in 2019? Up until last year I would have agreed with you but I thought our recruitment in 2019 at receiver was the best we've seen in years.

I like Lawler and Bailey, I don’t think either one will be elite, but both are good starting receivers. It’s still been our weakest import position in the O’Shea/Walters era. Noeller 1

I know he didn't play but it does help to be in the system. I think it was the same with Charles Nelson. Nelson is another guy that looks to have what it takes if he could stay healthy... wbbfan, Noeller and Bigblue204 3

I wouldn't say it is, these receivers had no issues once we moved on from Nichols and had guys who could throw the ball in to an area for these receivers to make plays. Noeller and wbbfan 1 1

Kind of agree, but small sample size, though. This group/regime still has something to prove, imo. bearpants and wbbfan 1 1

Mike O'Shea is every sports-writer's nightmare". Those coaches' call in shows with Kelly were classics. I gave up listening to poor old Bob try and do call-in shows with O'Shea, as the two word grunts in response to a detailed question were just not really doing much for me. I love Osh of course and what he has done for the Bombers, but he's definitely not a talkative guy, and that's ok. the watcher and wbbfan 2

I used to love those. I'd rather listen to Walter's talk. If this is the cost of the success the mafia has brought us I'm ok with it. I'm glad the injury report will change though. TBURGESS 1
Noeller Posted July 21, 2021 Author Report Posted July 21, 2021 The Coach's Show itself is fine....as long as it's just Osh and Bob. The only problem comes when you put callers on the air. Physically painful. johnzo, ddanger, Goalie and 1 other 4

I am looking forward to meeting him one day. My neighbour played for him in Toronto and says that he would have run through walls for the guy. So obviously that's way more important that being a media darling. GCJenks, Bigblue204 and the watcher 3
