Ontario Tankard Feb 1 2016
I'm just wondering if anyone has heard who will be filling in with Glen Howard in the Tankard. I'm assuming that Rich is moving up to third and a replacement second will be on board. I've been checking some sites but haven't heard or read anything yet. Anyone hear or read anything?

My understanding is their just drawing from the pool.
"Team Howard will be facing Tankard competition with a slightly different lineup than what advanced the team through the zone and regional competitions. Vice Wayne Middaugh was injured in a skiing accident and as a result Team Howard will be forced to pull players from a player pool created for this purpose."

Ontario Tankard
I just read this on google. Thought I had checked there but I guess not.
2016 Recharge with Milk Men's Tankard. Hosted by the Brant Curling Club Team Howard has chosen to select from the spare pool of players provided by the Ontario Curling Association
It doesn't say yet who has been chosen.

I agree ^^
all ive seen is sherry's pics after Wayne had his cast taken off
I thought for a split brain-ded moment that wayne was gonna show up for the tankard
wonder if they will play Scott at lead or second
since he did play second for 4 seasons ( 2010-14)

From what I understand they will pick Adam Spencer from the spare pool. He played a few games with them this season when Wayne was away. Just a rumour though,

in for Wayne..
Glenn needs a front end, fit guy to work with Scott
just my opinion
It's going to be Adam Spencer.

Adam Spencer has been Howard's quasi 5th player this season, playing with the team prior to Thanksgiving as Middaugh couldn't curl prior to that. Rob Rumfeldt filled in for Wayne at the Stu Sells Toronto event on Thanksgiving weekend.
Adam Spencer played 2nd, while Richard Hart moved back into the 3rd role.

Rich Hart..
I've seen Rich throw some pretty good heat..
Thing is.. he has a more cerebral approach
to the game,, and his humour keeps Glenn lighter
than the laser intensity of Wayne...
He has played for Howard for 13 seasons ( 6 Briers)
world gold - 2007... 2nd in Olympic trial- Edmonton 2010
( wiki) quote: He is nicknamed "the Hart Surgeon" for his ability to make difficult shots under pressure.
He was the 2011 winner of the annual Ford Hot Shots at the Brier
Epping is far from being an "unstoppable monster"
... we shall see...

Eppings team must help him, they can't depend on Epping to keep making those angle raise doubles or triples

Will Howard be there, is Epping the favorite, who are long shots, who are just along for the ride.
My playoff call is, in no order
Frans
Balsdon
Epping
Howard
Long shot
Deruelle

Any news on why Scott Bailey is not playing. Team Frans has had Scott at Skip most of the season, has it not?

Scott is away due to a previously booked vacation. The team will be using the spare pool all week as well. Fraser Reid played the first game.

Did Scott not think they were going to qualify? Or was it a time-specific vacation? I won't let my wife book time away if it means missing my beer-league slo-pitch or curling, lol!

M&M Meats should henceforth book all franchisee meetings in towns hosting the Ontario Tankard. Shouldn't they?

epping is a stealing machine through his first 2 games. all 12 points they have scored have been on steals.
i guess the one negative is that they have not got hammer in their first 2 games..but it doesnt seem like it matters
