Official Game Day Thread - Calgary at Winnipeg - July 7, 2023

We should just release Rose when he's healthy. He was done last year. Younger, better and cheaper is on the roster.

Our current lineup showing great promise but having Rose is still an asset if healthy and hasn't lost a step.  Time will tell.  Sure nice spot to be!

Rewatching: the fumble not-fumble on CGY ST that was overturned was a "down by helmet" hehe.  No other part touched except for the helmet.  Too bad there wasn't a Bomber under his head.

P.S. When Kroeker announces the overturn, that's the first time I've ever heard feedback on the IGF PA system.  Happened a couple more times, too.  IGF audio wiz needs to clear that up.

Watch for the part where Sheed kicks Awe in the groin.  It's on the long drive.  I think that is what sets Awe off for the rest of the game (and getting absolutely marched on)

Not a great concern but Demski didn't have many touches or overall output. I'm not sure if the Stamps game planned to take him out of being a target more often with their coverage schemes.

There might have been some decision by the Bombers to use him more as a decoy this game or a combination of both.

Our offence has too many weapons and regardless of which player an opponent defence schemes, it opens up the other players.

All of this before Lawler makes the game day roster.

We're still near the top of points scored per game, even after blowing a tire against the Lions. Argos are the current leaders for points per game.

well  that is fair game then.

Nice to see Hansen running up and down the side lines yesterday. Looks like he put on a little muscle.

Man he sure would be handy to have back!

That might suggest he'll be candidate to return to practice next week and come off IR the following week.

Would have a big impact

Can you be more specific?  When did this occur?  I'd like to check on the pvr.

It's on the long drive - Sheed takes a pass and rumbles - Awe makes a pretty good tackle on him and when they are getting up it seems like Awe and him got a bit tangled and Sheed sweeps his leg up - clearly on purpose and gets him between his legs.

I was at the game and saw a Calgary player making a kicking motion and wondered what it was...that was it.  Could have been penalty if they wanted to call stuff like that... Sheed plays with an edge all the time and I love it but it can get you in trouble. 

Dunigan makes a comment about it.

Sheed is gonna Sheed. Short fuse on that one.

Thank you for clarifying - just rewatching that drive and I did see what you meant.  I assumed Awe had to have been doing something to warrant Bailey kicking like that (going at the eyes like a lineman, or talking trash/spitting) but Awe didn't seem all that phased by it.  Clearly didn't hit him in the nads as he didn't go down or even protest in the least.

[Big Daddy]

I really wish Dunnigan would not talk so much.

I'm sorry, I'm not trying to call you out, but I guess I am doing just that.

What are you talking about?!

I would way rather hear Matty talk the entire game without someone even calling the game, than hear most of the others on TSN.

Matt Dunigan is the best thing to happen to TSN football. 

I'm also waiting for Road Grill to be renewed - greatest bbq show (or even food show) ever.

I agree Dunnigan is fun as Colour. He can get annoying as he likes to ramble but I still like him.
