Quote from: Blue In BC on September 18, 2024, 01:50:43 PMDepends. Wilson and Cole are back practising now so we may have either / or both back soon.

Very good point. If they are ready we won't need him.

MTL brings back Uguak.

That team is going to be stout... even with Mack out again.

trade, decent player imo

Wow! That sucks! Nobody sees that coming. Tough luck for the Als.

Ya but they've pretty much known this for a week already. They think Sterns is the answer, or Hunchak they just picked up. No Ajou Ajou either. Though Busby might have won himself a starting spot -- though as a rookie he can probably be picked on by a good D.

SSK started the year with a bad R corps, and now it's even worse. Johnson is really the only good one who's producing. KSB is having an off year but is still promising. Emilus is under-performing IMHO.

Talk about a team that could have used a big splash FA R signing! Where'd they spend all the SMS on? The OL and Oullette?

Big news out of BC

A nothing game, be interesting to see if Adams lights it up what controversy arises for the western final

Emilus and KSB may not get a lot of balls thrown their way but they always seem to make big plays with the YAC they gain.

I was just thinking BC should roll with VAJ the rest of the games. They will win nothing with Rourke. VAJ might provide a spark. Should have done it weeks ago, then they could have beat SSK (or maybe us!) for 2nd place.

If VAJ does ok or well (or simply better than Rourke), I don't see how you don't start VAJ in WSF.

Because SSK is all about downfield holding and blocking. They have to be: their whole game is the short pass. They've perfected it. And they are great at finding the line between flag and no-flag.

I bet MOS is secretly impressed by their downfield blocking when doing film study on SSK. He's a huge fan of that too.
