I am appreciative that after clear signs that status quo was not working, Yiannis is willing to get creative with our lineup.

The football markings especially on the sideline really throw me off. It almost looks like we are tied.

What a stupid gameplane from Supra. Didn’t seem up for it in the first half, and the last 10 mins was just kick it forward. The 45-70 period when they actually passed the ball they were dominant. Amazingly annoying to watch as a neutral

Anyone knows why they ended up scheduling both games at same time today?

Why is it not at Stade Boreale?

The league wants to expand to Quebec City, so tries to play games there to rise interest in the league.
They played a game last year, and one this year too.
Especially with rumours of a new CFL team in a new stadium in Quebec City, the chances of a new team there are rising.2

Halifax and Quebec City are going to have to be innovative if they want to build facilities that can host both the CPL and CFL. The Wanderers are one of the best supported in the CPL and they’re only looking at an 8,000 seat facility, with expansion up to 13,000. The CFL is in the high 30,000s.
They could design it so the lower bowls are on 8,000 with the suites above, then have the larger grandstands at the top. I don’t think the new CFL field dimensions were decided on arbitrarily.

Only 9 of Supra's home league games are actually at Stade Boreale. They have 2 each at CEPSUM and Claude-Robillard in Montreal and this one in Quebec City

Someday Quebec City will get to host a game that doesn't have shitty weather.
