Re: Who will be moving on?

David, I dearly hope we're wrong about our gut feeling re Burnham, as I came away with the same. Factor in that Bryan will be 33 next season, and suffered more than his share of injuries this season, and likely most importantly---he and his wife have one recently adopted child and two additional fo...

Re: Rourke is back

Rourke will likely be playing in the pocket a lot which is going to present a bit of a challenge to him and the O-line. Look for a number of passes in flat and screen plays.

Tyneil Cooper has played well for the past couple of games.

Re: CFL Awards

Team nominations for the annual CFL Awards are out, and not surprisingly Nathan Rourke was selected by local members of the Football Reporters of Canada as the Lions' nominee for Most Outstanding Player and Most Outstanding Canadian. I was stunned, though, that he wasn't a unanimous selection for e...

Re: Lions at Calgary Sept. 17, 2022

Turnovers were incredibly costly last week and did not allow for the offence to have any consistency. Pass Blocking is going to be very important to let Adams get comfortable in the backfield.

Re: Lions at Alouettes Sept. 9, 2022

Pipkin has more under the hood than a lot of people think IMO. It would be nice to see him get off to an effective start in the game tomorrow.

Re: Lions at midseason

This team is a lot more than one player. Roarke is a phenom for sure. Friday's game will be heavily scrutinized to see how the team responds to adversity.

Re: Rourke to undergo surgery

More than anything I feel gutted for Nathan Rourke. Sure, I was starting to think BC was going to host the WDF and possibly win the Grey Cup. Both of those seem impossible now unless both Winnipeg and Calgary collapse in the second half of the season. But for Rourke, who was at least going to get a...

Re: Rourke to undergo surgery

Full recovery from the surgery can take more than a year. This should at least squelch talk of Rourke leaving for the NFL next year. There is a huge difference between a Lisfranc sprain, and a Lisfranc dislocation or fracture! I have had the misfortune of suffering the latter, a Lisfranc dislocatio...

Re: Rourke to undergo surgery

Could be a season ending injury. According to a google search "No weight bearing is allowed for 6-8 weeks after surgery. A walking cast or boot is then used for another 4-6 weeks. If pins were used to hold the fourth and fifth metatarsals in place, they are removed 6-8 weeks after surgery. Pat...
