I am just catching up on all things CFL as it was a long extended trip down south so have not posted much. However in looking at the BC OL what happen to the guy that was playing right guard that was with the Bombers for a few years and was the BC starter last year? Sorry could not remember his name.

Great to finally be back up North - Brazil does not carry much news about the CFL!

Sukh Chungh? Is not playing in the league this year. No announcement on why or why not.

Many Thanks! Could not remember his name! If we ever get any players on the Bombers that speak Portuguese let me know! I have spent the better part of 2 years now in the wilds of Southern Brazil (Parana) and have had to learned the language to at least a conversational extent!

Has shown enough to make the roster and stick around as a depth guy.  Obviously the team likes him enough and sees promise and so do I.  This club values continuity and everyone on the roster plays and contributes.  Time will tell but hopefully another depth piece that we can continue to develop.  Trust the mafia, I do.  Maybe we will get a blurb from MOS on him at some point.

Dressed for 7 games last year.  Team must like what they see. 

Correct at bottom of depth chart.

If anyone see the reps he gets chime in after the game.  I'll forget to watch for him lol.

You might be the only poster that thinks he was the best choice option. Like I said we didn't need another LB but Clercius is nicked and our depth at receiver is a bit thin.

If Peterson balls like last week, best believe we will be pounding it all night long and will get good value out of Cooley to spell him and keep 'er rolling.

I don't know if Peterson will have another game like last week. If he does, then it will be like having Oliveria playing and not sending in Augustine in the past. Keep with what is working so to speak.

If and when Cooley get in he shows all the hype was correct and he rips off a 50 yarder. Both Peterson and Cooley seem to be quick fast and slippery so I think we'll see a great run game.

I suppose you're probably right, but also throw in the mix that we also will want to see Cooley play I would think.

Peterson is also 25 lbs lighter than Brady. Not every back can take every carry.

Totally. Some people seem ready to put Peterson up there with the great backs after one game where he came off the bench. It looked good but we should pump the breaks. He was traded for very little and Hamilton gets paid to evaluate too. I'm hopeful but I expect Cooley to be the better back pretty easily.

He was part of the deal with Bailey but also tied into the deal Goveia made for Samson, Ti-Cats are not starting a Natl RB this season so he wouldn't get the opportunity to play much with them.  Good deal all around.

And some haven't done that with Cooley who hasn't taken a snap in a regular season game? Cooley is 2" shorter and 7 lbs lighter. Not much difference.

I hope he gets some reps and shows well.

I think he can!! He is a physical back who reads the field well, I m thinking he goes over 100 yds easy.

True, the O-line provided huge holes for him to run through, it might be a different result against teams that plug the gaps like the Argos did in the GC, even Brady struggles in those situations.

Chungh started all last season, in BC.  He looked like he was getting miffed at the incompetence and losingness of that team late last season.

They just didn't re-sign him and no one else did in FA.  That means he's asking way too much for a (now) normal-tier NAT OG.  I think he's holding out for injuries and a big mid-season payday.

[TecnoGenius]

I dont think so, with Wallace in he effectively replaces Olivera in the lineup as the 7th cdn, so Petersen isnt included, and he and Cooley can sub freely

Yup, we'll be back to starting 8 NAT, and if Cooley isn't a DI he can come on whenever.  However, who knows who is the non-DI IMP since those designations are Super Ceral Secret that cannot be revealed to plebes lest the Coca Cola formula leak out.
