Quote from: blue_gold_84 on October 30, 2025, 12:57:34 PMI think @bunker is referring to Streveler's injury last season in the Banjo Bowl where Brown's dirtbag antics were the cause.

One week after Brown knocked Zach out of the LDC with an intentional hit to the head, very similar to the CJ Reavis hit in that they both intended to hit him high but made it look accidental.

I don't think you can conclude " intent " from either of those hits.

I do. we talked at length about it in this thread where you said it should be a 1 game.

It's the game where MOS wore his cap backwards after the hit and Miller issued a statement directly to commissioner Randy Ambrosie the next day.

Strev's style hasn't changed since high school, runs and throws the same way.

Smoke and mirrors, is that all we're getting?

It's a pattern. If it happened once, no problemo. But every year the Riders cripple/concuss another Bomber, and usually other teams' players too.

What's the saying? Once is an accident, twice is ... thirty times is...

Demski is likely GTD on the roster but does not play.

All the aforementioned Rider hits were dirty. All of their teams with ODay as GM have been dirty.

Jon Hodge reporting Chris Streveler re-tore the ACL in his left knee. Future unknown at this point except that he will get surgery again.

Unfortunate for him after working so hard to rehab. The future is unknown officially but it doesn't look good.

Not confident O'Shea would ever close the door on Strev, if he rehabs he likely comes back even if it's only for SY.

Streveller update:

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/winnipeg-bombers-cfl-9.6963972

Streveler said Sunday he re-tore the anterior cruciate ligament and the meniscus in his left knee. Last year, he had the ACL and medial collateral ligament repaired, plus the posterior cruciate ligament was damaged.

"Thankfully, my MCL and PCL were intact," Streveler said of the latest injury. "That's the bright side of things. I don't even know if heartbreaking does it justice."

He plans surgery soon and then rehab, but added he tried to get ready to play in the East final.

When his knee swelled after running, he knew it was a pipe dream.

The meniscus is potentially worse depending how badly it is damaged. It is the layer that stops the knee from being bone on bone.

This is ridiculous, I think it's time to dump Al Couture and start fresh, too much evidence he allows the players to do whatever they want. If he was managing Chad Kelly, good chance he would have let him play as early as July.

I was doing a bit of research into rehabilitation time for athletes who injure their knee ligaments, and while one-year is the previous minimum, there's growing evidence to suggest you need closer to two years. Given that both Streveler and Schoen both reinjured those same ligaments, that's probably correct (even with the small sample size).

Realistically, I don't see how either of those two come back from those injuries.

I don't know where the blame lies. But someone has to protect these players from themselves. And we are not doing that.
