After that Mann TD, I did not think he would be upstaged, but that was what Williams did. And Stala, knowing he's not a YAC guy, tossed a lateral to a YAC guy, though Mann did not gain much after that, was still good to see. Can't wait to see the highlights of this game.
And only 10 yards in penalties by us. On Labour Day! Who predicted that? I know the opponent was different, but...
I haven’t seen the stats yet but I understood there was no penalty yards at all…perhaps I heard wrong (but it’s still an exercise in great discipline regardless) 8)
Two – Holding on #? on the kickoff return following the Anderson TD with 4:30 left in the game, and Offside on Hickman on a MTL 3rd & 10 play in the final minute or two. That was declined as McPherson had scrambled for a 1st down.
I thought I heard Dunigan, after the game, say that Hamilton had won the series with Montreal.
He didn't elaborate, but I believe his thinking is that Hamilton is now up by 2 and is leading by a considerable margin in the points for and against the Als. So, should Climie's favourite team win the next two. Chances are Hamilton would win the series by the point spread over the 4 games.
Dunnigan may have been sticking his neck out, but not by much. With the two wins so far (34-26 and 44-21) the Cats win the season series with Montreal UNLESS the Als win BOTH games in Montreal (Sept. 11 & Oct. 16) AND by a two-game total of 31 or more points difference.
I was out of town yesterday afternoon (in Port Perry) but managed to get to my car to tune in CHML for a few minutes. I sure picked the right time....it was when the defence stuffed Montreal three times on the goal line.
I did not hear the final score until after the game. Wow!
Great win.
