Winnipeg @ BC the Rematch

[Stats Junkie]

derek Taylor says moving Sheehan was just a paper move and 100% he is punting in the game.

Well it makes sense that he'll play. I don't understand what the paper move accomplished though. Odd to say the least. Unless he's getting an extension and they move him off the PR and re-sign him to an extension?

During the practice week, a team must observe the 45 player limit but the ratio does not apply.

Mike O'Shea discussed the Sheahan move to the practice roster on the Coach's Show last night. It was a paper move to allow Zach Collaros on to the active roster from the suspended list.  Sheahan will be on the active roster when the depth chart is released – the move buys the team some time to make decisions.

He then elaborated on the process hinting that a healthy player may be moved to the 1-game injured list this week. Once a player is moved to the injured list, he is stuck there and must miss the next game. A player moved to the practice roster can be moved back to the active roster in the same week.

O'Shea stated that the Blue Bombers like to wait until the last possible moment before announcing the 45 players who will play and the corresponding moves to the injured list and/or practice roster.

After the depth chart is submitted, an injury substitution can be made up to 30 minutes before kickoff. The player removed from roster must end up on an injured list and a practice roster player can be added to the active roster.

Update from Bomberland: Zach Collaros back at QB1, Matthew Peterson in Brady Oliveira's spot. Gabe Wallace getting work at right guard

Also: Quinton Cooley getting some work at RB, too.

from ed tait

Derek Taylor mentioned that Wallace was working at left guard. In Ed Tait's article later in the day he said that Wallace got reps at left guard. Today, Derek Taylor mentioned that Wallace was back at left guard.

I think Ed's first post may have been an error.

Ok, sure but it seems pretty obvious that we move Artopoeus off the AR. We aren't dressing 4 QB's. Everybody in the country knows that. Whether we move him to PR, 1 game IR or release him outright is the only question.

This paper shuffle seems pointless.

Still no daily IR reports but we know pretty much what to expect. Nevertheless, what the heck?

Schmeck is listed at the bottom, no injury full practice, same with Mitchell, Weitz and Jon Jones. Thrilled to see injured body parts identified!

Riders often carry 4 QB's, currently hiding Cohn on the 1 game IR behind Maier, and Stevens.

Yes but not on the AR. It is still uncommon to carry an extra QB on any roster. I'm not saying we should cut him, just saying he's coming off the AR. Remote chance it's Wilson coming off but either way, who are we fooling? There is no need to hide that info to our opponent.

Injuries

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Over in Vancouver Nathan Rourke was listed as limited. Gary Peters who had an uncharacteristically bad outing in Winnipeg hits the list with a thigh injury and a limited designation. Also the early signs looks like they'll get Adam Auclair back - he practiced fully for the first time this year.

[Blue In BC]

Lionbackers seems to be down for the last day so can't really get any feel about Rourke status. Limited suggests he could play but he might not be close to 100% and may not start. We're in his head and he may opt out. lol

This is funny

From 3 down

" He's very conscientious," said Winnipeg head coach Mike O'Shea of Peterson after the game, which would've set off a nation-wide "Understatement Alert" if such a thing existed."

If the team decides to add Munier-Bailey to the AR which Canadian is most probable to be removed? If BO can't play there is a domino effect that could change the answer. If they take out Vanterpool, then we might need to add Vibert. We could also see Cobb added in as receiver depth.

However, back to the base question I think Novak would be the odd man out. I'm not suggesting he isn't a good player but from a depth point of view, he's excess at the moment. Gaining Bailey would give us an additional player off the edge and coaches are high on him too.

Leroux probably comes in for Benson.

The rest depends on whether they decide to add Cooley. They might but the direct changes to accommodate that includes multiple options.

For that matter it's not 100% certain Oliveria doesn't dress. If his injury doesn't risk further damage, he could be the emergency back up rather than needing to start.

they could simply replace Kornelson, I don't think he saw any reps last game, and regardless of the Cooley decision i think it would be a good move anyway. As far as Olivera goes if he's not healthy enough to start don't even dress him we need him 100%

Another ratio puzzle to solve, I don't think they would dress Kornelson along with Lawson and Jake if Woods was healthy, although they might have to.  Ratio flexibility is hampering lineup decisions in multiple positions.  Big picture, maintaining 3 Natls. on the O-line is an important objective.
