#Bombers announce the signing of veteran linebacker, and two-time Grey Cup champion, Ejiro Kuale

[Noeller]

Booo.....

[sweep the leg]

That's certainly not as exciting as Lawrence would have been.

[Mike]

Yeah this one gets a big fart noise from me.

 

Not a big fan of Kuale.

[Noeller]

Definite fart noise...

[Tracker]

Kuale is certainly tough and durable, but he was pretty slow to start with and hasn't gotten any faster with time. I sure hope he has some fierce competition in training camp.

[TBieber]

A linebacker who can punt. Versatile.

[M.O.A.B.]

They can still pursue Simoni Lawrence.

[DR. CFL]

Well they just have to worry about him roughing his own QB at practice now. Bets on how.ong it takes him to get a roughing the passer penalty?

[Logan007]

Booo.....

You stole my line...

[Captain Blue]

I HATE HATE HATE HATE Kuale.

 

More so as a dirty player than as what he does at linebacker, but this is underwhelming.  I'd rather roll with the guys we have.

Now that he plays for the Bombers he's guaranteed a 3-4 game suspension... when he played for Toronto a minimum fine was sufficient...

[voodoochylde]

Definitely not the LB I had hoped for .. guy with limited upside and hasn't made a notable impact as a defender in at least a couple of seasons .. must have come cheap ..

[Goalie]

not really a "name" lb, maybe to those who dont pay attention but..... a little underwhelmed by this signing.

 

Didn't expect lawrence, he was just released like what? yesterday? surely he has other nfl teams interested in him, thought he did when he signed originally and honestly, if he was to go  back to the CFL, why wouldn't he go back to hamilton, they wanted him, and if he comes back to the CFL, that is where he will be.

 

Kuale? a big meh really, im not sure he makes it out of camp.

[Blueandgold]

I'm not a huge fan of Kuale, and I'm even less impressed with him taking Parker's spot.

well, parker did only play in 8 games in 2 seasons and thought kuale was brought in for the MLB role, parker? i don't think that was ever a real option, except on this forum really. I never really heard anyone in the bomber organization mention parker as an option for MLB, it was just a few people on the forum here.

[rebusrankin]

What a big whoop dee do.

[Dirty30]

There's always the option of moving Kuale or Wild to safety.

[TBieber]

[gbill2004]

Pretty sure Bombers want to start a NI at safety.

[IC Khari]

pretty sure he was kidding

[Dirty30]

Pretty sure Bombers want to start a NI at safety.

O'Shea made mention that they were going to look at Newman at LB. Before that was mentioned I was expecting him to be used at Safety

say what you will about kuale, but that is one intimidating looking individual.

My guess is he said that as leverage in negotiations with Kuale. He said at the fan forum he didn't want the new LB (Kuale) thinking he was automatically the 'starter'.
