Often they aren't obvious, but there was an illegal block that occurred in plain view on that return that I'm surprised none of the officials caught it. With all of the ticky tacky calls that seem to dominate the CFL lately, to miss seeing that one was a huge fail. Even the commentators caught it. Hamilton may still have marched down the field and got the field goal to win the game anyway, but it is unfortunate for BC that call was missed. <br />Speaking of illegal blocking calls on returns, would be nice if they could make an effort to show more of them. More often than not, we are not shown the illegal block on the replay. I realize they may be tough to find, but they are part of the game and have a huge impact on a team's field position. As a fan, it would be nice to see who committed them and whether they actually impacted the return. I'm willing to suggest that probably many of them don't. Perhaps that's another thing the league could look at.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691831480757500675.post-50532843515916451742019-08-12T12:05:51.962-06:002019-08-12T12:05:51.962-06:00

Just award the match to the kid. I'm with you, that's a very hollow victory. <br /><br />As far as the Riders game goes, if this is something mandated by the league and the PA and was agreed upon, there isn't a lot you can do. Now that we have seen the protocol in effect though, it is time to sit-down anddiscuss the matter in the off-season. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691831480757500675.post-89359581413378612602019-08-12T08:09:58.522-06:002019-08-12T08:09:58.522-06:00

The new protocol was put in place and agreed upon by all those with a vested interest in the safety of the players and fans. Yes, it is not the ideal way to end a game, but it applies in the same way to both teams. As a Rider fan, I would have accepted the result if Montreal had been in the lead, given that this was the protocol that had been agreed upon by the owners and players.
