toontownman Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Disappointing. I liked diouck. He was recommended to Edmonton wasnt he though so was maybe always a short term option? Hope he stays in the league but I think thats unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 It's really no different to any other league but I am still caught a bit off guard by all these releases. I just had it in my head everyone would be tied down for at least two seasons. Very interested to see if the players leaving will be upgraded on. REB probably isn't a surprise exit. He was largely disappointing for sure. Winnipeg Fury 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansem Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Tony Tchani, James Marcelin, Oumar Diouck, Ajeej Sarkaria, Bruno Zebie, Randy Edwini-Bonsu, Dylon Powley and Philippe Lincourt-Joseph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sense in keeping around players that could be improved on. The fact that Easton Ongaro was the club's best player probably showed the club that they don't necessarily need to spend to bring in stars and opened their eyes to how much they were overpaying "names".

Bison44 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 I hope that the Eddies can find another Ongaro in the U-sports draft. But whats up with Zebie being released?? Wasnt he a solid starter for the eddies? Aird25 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yothat2 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Zebie was solid. Looks a little bizarre. Must be a story behind it or trying his European passport. Would have liked to see REB back for another year. Just couldn't find his groove. He might do well with another cpl club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFBF Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 To be clear the Zebie who was released was Bruno, not Allan. Allan, being our starting LB, and Bruno rotating in and out at LB, RB, and LM. Releasing Bruno is a loss, but mostly because he would be a depth player who can play multiple positions. Also a loss of our Beloved Bruno/Allan Zebie chant. As for the other releases, the make sense. Dylon was quite good, but likely only going to get time as a backup, so he probably wanted to go elsewhere. Diouck was productive, but a poacher and not much else. They probably felt comfortable with Easton and Tomi and wanted to spend on wingers/midfielders.

shamrock Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Well, the players released are the ones you'd expect. Big pay disappointing performance: Tony Tchani, James Marcelin, Randy Edwini-Bonsu Not playing much: Ajeej Sarkaria, Bruno Zebie, Dylon Powley and Philippe Lincourt-Joseph. Probably other options: Oumar Diouck. So I wouldn't read too much into it. Of course there's gonna be players that don't like the coach, but there's also going to be players that do like him. Most of the time, it has to do with the (lack of) Playing Time they're getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might explain why he tries to put as many academy kids on the roster as possible including using the Draft to grab their own kids. Hoping he can prevent a coup with veterans by building a loyal base?
