Official Game Day Thread - Winnipeg @ Montreal November 7, 2026

[Blue In BC]

In fairness we did find some very good looking talent on the DL. Fletcher, Reese and Jenkins have looked good. That's one area we did actually improve this year.

I like Faj...I'd want the Elks to kill Alexander. I really like Killam's energy.

I like Rourke more, he is easy to cheer for.  I wish we could lure him here ,but probably never. Private ownership, good entertainment there, they have it good in Vancouver.

I hate Cody more than anything, but if I think about it from a "what benefits us" standpoint I think it's better if EDM wins the cup.  That extinguishes their "hunger" as well as gets their roster raided in FA.  Both things will make them easier to beat next year.

Yes, the same would apply to MTL, but they're outside our division so it would (should!) only really help us if we manage to get to a cup vs them.

Always better to have a divisional opponent get weaker.  So go EDM!  Go Cody!  (barf)
Go Rankin! (double barf)  I will be happy for their blue-collar lunch-pail REC corps though -- they are a ragtag bunch of misfits and losers (ex-Mack).

[Throw Long Bannatyne]

He's a little b for whining to OSH about it.  I could overlook most of his other bs this season, but that has Willow written all over it.

Would love to see O'Shea body-slam-sack him!

Wow, watching Cody & EDM moving the ball very efficiently and super fast and with big zip; and comparing it with our O performance... How come we can't play like this on O?

Our REC corps is like 3X better than EDM's, and yet they can't get out of their own way.  And it's not like Cody is Alexander either.

Sad.

Roure almost threw a pick six..lol.  I do like his mobility though.  We need our scouting to do better and find us some players like this.

Oh..there's a Rourke INT.

There is a thread for the BC/Edm game. That's the place to discuss it. Not here.

[tlf]

Oh, Brady was supposed to join the CJOB broadcast but decided to leave quickly instead and not give the interview. Huh.

Sadly Zach has lost most of his mobility, on too many plays he's a sitting duck and he now runs like a dump truck.

He seems immature ... this is like telling teacher that someone was was mean during recess.

Add to those guys Major Williams and Dorian Singer, that's 4 impact players added to our roster, that's pretty darned good.

Well Derek Taylor from CJOB who knows football MUCH better than you or I, and knows Zach much better than you or I, says he hopes he plays next year because he has a lot more football in him.

There's that. I agree.

Alexander appeared to have all day but I would understand if you blame Younger and his **** system to.
