 Training camp and pre-season are over, and the real games begin this weekend.

The Saskatchewan Roughriders are gearing up for the 2011 CFL season, and host the Edmonton Eskimos to kick off the new season on Sunday.

Slotback Chris Getzlaf says they just want to get on the field and make another run at the Grey Cup.



Fullback Graeme Bell is a newcomer to the Riders, being acquired in a trade with Edmonton in May.

Being from Saskatchewan, he says he's excited to be a part of Rider Nation.



Getzlaf and Bell were in town meeting fans and signing autographs at the Swift Current Mall over the weekend.

The Riders also made their final cuts on the weekend.
