Official Game Day Thread - WDF -Saskatchewan at Winnipeg - November 9, 2024

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Haha Riders.

Not a dirty team but can't make it a single game without getting fined.

My prediction? The shine is going to come off Mace next year and it's not going to be pretty. The team won a few more games than with Dickenson but they're still rotten.

I think that entirely depends on their QB situation.

I think that entirely depends on their QB situation.

I don't think it does. Too many players acting like selfish idiots this year. Ultimately, you're not going to be very successful with that stuff going on. The main reason they were as good as they were was because their defense turned the ball over at a super high clip. That's not usually sustainable, at least not at such a high margin. If they're not .500 it's not pretty in Regina. I wouldn't bet on them.

Ha ha I saw that. Cox was getting upset at us in 107. What's incredible is, that's not the first time a rider has flashed the fans the middle finger. Farjardo did it a few years ago. I know, shocked right ? He actually did. I saw it with my own eyes.

Zero class in that organization these days.

Makes the win on Saturday that much better.

Fined nearly once per game. Just ridiculous.

It's because the Command Centre is against them and otherwise they would have won the Cup already this year, guys.

And the rider fans think what he did was a great thing. No class at all.

Cult-like behaviour.

Save  the game with all those phantom calls earlier this season.  Worst reffed game I think ever saw in my life! Brutal. 🤨

That's why you have to keep the cam/phone at the ready!

Cody did it?  Hahah no wonder his Jesus Sprinkles abandoned him in the week 21 game and the EDF!

I know Lawler and Holm and Kramdi arguably had their best games of the year, but I just wanna give some props to Gabe Wallace on the Oliviera TD.

Ya, I noticed Wallace on some road-grading duties too.  Monster.  I knew out of TC he was best used as a grader.  How do you stop that guy?

I think every D guys upped his game.  It was insane.  If they keep that up in the GC, Arbuckle is doomed to 4+ INTs.

[TecnoGenius]

Sask got behind big early and the dink and dunk game went out the window.

Pretty sure SSK tried the mid/deep ball a couple of times before they were down 14.  And even if you're down 14 in the 1st, why do you abandon your game plan?  14 pts in a CFL game is nothing.

I think they specifically went in thinking the trick up their sleeve was the deep game.  So funny: we were scared of the effective dink & dunk, no one was scared of the SSK deep ball!

No class by player or fans supporting his poor behaviour. Par for the course though for that outfit.
