Goalie Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 14 minutes ago, Mark H. said: Not what I meant. They are rostering others who are almost spectators. The rookies won't be busting their butts much longer either. When Owen Hubert replaced Willy he was getting penetration. Fayad got more pressure. Yes Willy prob being double teamed but if you focus on him on some plays, he’s not really trying even. It appears he just isn’t interested in engaging. Like neufeld against Ottawa.

johnzo Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 The play calling at the end of the half was jacked up. Running into the line with 11 seconds left basically conceded the TD. Weird call. I got no beef with the call to cancel the last second showing; the clock clearly started late on the final play of the half. It looked bush league suspicious to me, real homer timekeeping. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You run you're clearly playing for the field goal... so why try and pass with 5 seconds left? Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t blame Demski for that one, granted I only saw the play the once on TV. bb1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don’t think a lack of interest/effort was the issue. I think he had accepted that he couldn’t beat a double team, so was sitting back trying to bat down balls.

JohnnyAbonny Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 So my almost 3 year old heard me talking to her Grandpa about the game on the phone this morning. “What is punter dad?” “Something bad that the Blue Bombers have. They’ve got a bad punter. He’s the man that kicks the football the way I showed you. It’s called a punter, and he’s a bad punter” ”Oh, Bluebommers have a bad punter” ”Yes sweetie, that’s right. Your Gramdfather is probably a better one, and he’s 70” ”And Mommy is better punter than bluebombers?” ”Yes, That’s probably right too” “And Jenny (our collie cross) is better punter than Bluebombers?” It went on for about a half hour, with literally every name she knows. I’m building another one of us… Dr Zaius, Piggy 1, deepsixemtoboyd and 4 others 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps but I concentrated on him a couple times and it appeared he wasn’t doing much of anything. Really did give neufeld against Ottawa vibes. At one point I thought it looked like the jets players quitting on Dave Lowry. This was first half. No doubt tho Thomas being basically a waste of a spot doesn’t help tho.

DTonOB Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 5 hours ago, WinnipegGordo said: He has the lowest punt average in the league and it looks like the Bombers have the lowest net average as well. @DTonOB Do you have the net punt average for teams from this year? I couldnt find the info at any website that I checked. CFL official through Week 2: EDM 42.5 TOR 42.3 HAM 38.8 MTL 38.4 CGY 38.3 SSK 38.1 OTT 33.7 WPG 33.1 BC 32.3 Adjusted for field position I have Sheahan being dead last through two weeks...4.3 net yards below average per punt. johnzo, WildPath, rebusrankin and 3 others 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demski, the only veteran worth his pay tonight. 3. Fayed. He’s a keeper. HH. Hubert. Late round Canadian playing above and beyond any expectation. Bad 1. Younger. This **** ain’t working. 2. Bighill. Love him, totally respect everything he’s done for this organization. Totally finished as a player. 3. MOS. We’ve all said it and read it. This is really bad. Crappy Honker- TSN ignoring an injury to a league superstar to talk about what number Keric Wheatfall likes. Not a one. Best players on D tonight were Bonds, Hubert and Fayed. Absolutely agree with your 3 stars and the HH. At the start of the game I was wondering who this new d'lineman was. They ran outta team roster handouts so all I got was that he was a Canadian kid. Played great, pass knockdown and tons of energy. A keeper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand1.5 Posted June 23 Report Share Posted June 23 I was not expecting much from Schmek or Hubert....but thus far Schmek. may be the most improved from last year and Hubert in a small sample impressed the heck outta me....side not, Wallace has also impressed....we may in the future look back on some really good value draft picks JohnnyAbonny, BigBlueFanatic, Piggy 1 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted June 23 Report Share Posted June 23 Hubert stood out in one of the preseason games too. Got some nice potential even if it's only as a roster depth piece. Would rather he on the roster than Thomas anyway. Poor old fatboi is done. Stickem, Piggy 1, Noeller and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no "Jake hater" but the amount of reps him and Willie are taking right now makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
