do or die Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 Walters is trying......but it takes a while to build Canuck OL content......when was starting from, literally ground zero. (previous managements) One way to help matters is to bring some top-end import talent, there.....instead of a endless string of journeymen...

Randle was one of the few bright spots last night for the amount of time he played, also coming back for an injury doesn't seem to have hindered his defensive play Tracker and Bigblue204 2
bigg jay Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 Sucks to see guys get hurt like that in pre-season. MOBomberFan, Brandon, TBURGESS and 3 others 6
johnzo Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 That run where he was hurt looked so awkward, I've never seen a guy springback-cut like that.

Fantastic play. Usually a throw-behind is a 50/50 shot at pass interference in the CFL. Not on #randleisland. Remember back in the good old days when quarterbacks tried to hit receivers in stride on deep balls? I hate the throw-behind. #oldguyrantsatclouds I disagree. The kind of pass play you describe takes accuracy on the throw & the receiver reaching back making the catch. I like it.
johnzo Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) Oh, no doubt that it takes a ton of skill and timing to pull off, it's just that it's also penalty bait and I hate how important and prominent pass interference has become. I hate reflexively scanning for orange flags on any kind of incompletion where the db and receiver are within speaking distance. Edited June 14, 2016 by johnzo Bigblue204 1
Noeller Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 Randle was outstanding last night and showed that his injury is not likely to affect him this season. He's in good form... Goalie and Bigblue204 2

johnzo Posted June 14, 2016 Report Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) CFLTime has been killing it with their video uploads so far this season, they just posted the game about an hour ago. Nice to have someone covering me if I can't watch live. The video starts a bit late, around nine minutes into the first quarter, but the very first play is that excellent Randle endzone play that I was talking about. Black's call on it is just as crap as 17to85 says, tho Forde at least gets it right on the replay. Edited June 14, 2016 by johnzo MOBomberFan 1

We need to play Internationals on the OL & I agree that the guys they bring in from the US for the most part aren't very good. Other teams can build an OL & find quality Internationals yet we don't seem to be able to. DR. CFL 1
BigBlueFanatic Posted June 15, 2016 Report Posted June 15, 2016 I have to remind myself that game two's "first unit offence" did have significant changes over the game one OL Neufeld at LG next to Bryant was a disaster... Even Schulz was able to highlight him getting lit up on basic stunts by the opposing DL If the management insists on employing this guy then for the love of God keep him at RT! I'm not learned in football yet it surprises me he can seem competent at tackle but having help on both sides as a guard makes Neufeld worse than useless. Put Bond back at guard. Hardrick also seemed to play better in PS1 then guys like Foketi in PS2
Blueballz Posted June 15, 2016 Report Posted June 15, 2016 Sloppy play from both sides, Bombers a lil more sloppier. At least it wasn't more of a blow out.

Sure, and tell me who do think would go first, me or you? Did i insult you? Did I break a forum rule? Most forums I know frown severely on members trying to kick other members off. Some will suspend or ban such users. The whole 'purpose' of a forum is to allow folks to express opinions and discuss things. Personally I enjoy coming here and reading everyone's take on things. If i post something inapproriate, like, i don't know, for instance telling another person here leave for NO REASON, then maybe I will be banned.

Nope ball is placed behind the receiver so covering db runs by the receiver when he slows down to adjust to the football. It's not an easy throw. Edited June 15, 2016 by iso_55
