Interestingly, this Ottawa Redblacks team is much better than the 2013 Winnipeg Blue Bombers. 

 

Only if you're in some kind of bizzaro world.  They have one starting quality NI in Shologan.  Almost all of their OL are damaged goods or failed prospects, a couple are still prospects.

 

 

Hage and Eppele would stroll into the Bomber O-Line.

 

 

Hage is done with the knee injury.  Eppele will have a long career in a 9 team league, but is he anything more than an average guard.  Not yet.  You could put Morley in Eppele's jersey and Eppelle in Morley's and you wouldn't know the difference aside from Morley's gut.

Hage (when available) is better than anything NI Wpg has on the line. So is Eppele and he's still improving. Equating him with Morley is baffling. Total disservice to Eppele.

 

to wit: a guy who was behind Eppele on our O-Line depth chart (Parenteau) strolled into your line... and you think Eppele wouldn't??

Morley and Swiston were injured when Parenteau dressed as our 6th OL in Edmonton.

Losing Lavoie was a kick in the nuts for MTL - guy was a monster on STs. Overall CAL takes it in the arse the worst, imo.

 

Didn't he miss most of the season with PCS?

 

Ottawa didn't get many guys who are without pretty major question marks, although the talent level isn't bad.

 

Which I find ironic, as the TSN panel was touting them as all guys with a long way to go on their careers and no injury history..

Hage isn't done. If there was an injury concern then Ottawa would never have taken him. He'll be the starting center in Ottawa for the nest 3 or 4 years.

No way in hell.

That's an awfully bold prediction considering he's been quoted as saying he's not even sure he'd report to them. That situation aside, there's no way Hage has 3 years of starters mileage left in him.

Not even sure he'd even be starting one year even if he did report.
