I predict the Lions will take home 5 out of 6 awards. I would of course trade it all to have the team playing in the big game though :bawl:

Any idea why it's been scaled back so much?

It will not be broadcast this year (at least on the same day anyways) and it's no longer formal attire either.

Most Outstanding Player: Kerry Joseph - better end of season should win easily
Canadian: Jason Clermont - great season more noticeable position to get recognized
Defensive Player: Cameron Wake - deserves it plain and simple
Offensive Lineman: Dan Goodspeed - just a hunch here, Murphy may suffer for his bad boy image this year
Rookie: Cameron Wake - should be easy choice but Setta may get mercy vote
Special Teams: Ian Smart - Dorsey was only around for 1/2 a season

here is how I see the votes going. Setta may get the mercy win and that may be the category where I am wrong.

Most Outstanding Player: Kerry Joseph - Have to give him props on a solid season and playing the most of any of the contending CFL QB's
Canadian: Jason Clermont - May be the only award that the Lions lose, it will be that close
Defensive Player: Cameron Wake - He is a monster, he is creating his own wake as a player in the CFL
Offensive Lineman: Rob Murphy - Close but the OL is a Dirty Position, that takes a bad boy to win it
Rookie: Cameron Wake - Not even close
Special Teams: Ian Smart - solid solid season, Mr. Positive yards while keeping the Lions in some games that they didn't deserve to be

You are not thinking clearly WT (but it may be due to your GC week :)), clearly the player that you select to win the DPOY easily should be the ROY. It would make little sense to award CW the DPOY and not get the ROY award also, just won't happen.

Facts say it should be Wake I agree. but there is always that mindset of well he will DPOY so lets give ROY to the other guy

The hardest awards to predict are the ones that do not come down to two finalists:

1. Rogers CFL Fans Choice Award
2. Tom Pate Memorial Award

Does any Lion stand a good chance of winning these awards?
