Bombers are going to have some choices to make in the secondary. We have too many good players than I think we will be able to keep. A couple of eastern team have lost some DB's for an extended time.  Redblacks just lost M. Hunter for an extended period.

If we can't keep everyone, perhaps we can at least trade someone out of the western division. Trade value for import DB's isn't usually very high but something is better than nothing if it comes down to it.

Do you think the Riders will do any better then the Elk or do we have  to wait for the regular season?

I think the Bombers will have fine tuned the team more than the 1st game. Hard to say whether the " starters " see more time on the field or whether those fighting for roster spots see most action.

Bombers don't have anything to prove in pre-season. OTOH, Riders are trying to show they can compete.

That said: Bombers 24 - Riders 10.

They shut down at 2 but still let people in to pick up tickets. I thought I was the last one in the building but nope.  In fact the Bombers came on the field after 2:15ish and were doing some running. Bighill was there running and still looking healthy. At the risk of sounding weird I will say a shirtless Jake Thomas surprised me with how much muscle he has, just his tummy that is fat. Do we still call him fatboi? I see now why his bull rush is effective.

Got there at 12:45pm and the STH line went from the Pinnacle Club to the Bomber Store. 

Grabbed a hot dog and a drink instead, will go back sometime during the week.

I've got 3 tickets for sale for this Friday's Bomber game vs Saskatchewan.

They are Row 1 on the 50 yard line, behind the visitor's bench.

Pre-season game, so I am not asking the face value which is $160/ticket.

Open to reasonable offers.

Please message me, as that's the way the mods prefer these discussions occur.

Stars with another big win.

It could be that's what the suspension or retired list are usually used for. There was no info at the time except the released comment.

We don't know that the Bombers didn't contact his agent. It might be a " wait and see " how the rookies look before they consider making an offer.

Don't know if they made contact or know more than we do regarding a possible injury situation.

The bigger question is what do the coaches feel about any or all of our DT's potential? I wouldn't put too much stock in the 1st pre-season game just yet.

Do you think the Riders will do any better then the Elk or do we have  to wait for the regular season?

Elks released 18 players. None of particular note. That was fast but they've played both pre -season games already. Chris Jones in his usual take no prisoners mode.

Still has 70 players + many on suspended list.

I would like to see Amare Jones return some kicks of Friday night if he is still around.

Certainly didn't see a Grant replacement in that game....I hope Janarion checks in this week
