Quote from: Throw Long Bannatyne on July 15, 2024, 08:51:57 PMAnyone know where Lucky Whitehead slotted in practice today?

Whitehead had second team reps on offense and was shagging kicks with Smith and Case.   Case took Demski's spot with the 1s in Demski's absence..he appears to have climbed the depth chart above Mitchell who was with the 2s and moved back to practice roster with Smith.

If practise week ends how it started, looks like Case is our back up WR and returner; also looks like Garbutt slots in...he was getting reps with 1s.

On the injury front Fox and Lawler working with trainer including sprints in end zone.  Haba still nowhere near ready.  Didn't see Lawson.

Riders have a good D. There OL is little beat up. I think the key is going to be getting pressure on the QB and not turning the ball over.

Riders D is good, and good vs the run, which spells trouble for our O

This is going to be a good game and riders always play us tough at home

I'm jealous

This may be the game to trek to, not LDC.  If any game in Mosaic is a "should win", this is it.  Always fun to go there, but waaaay more fun when we whoop those greenies!  ;D

Quote from: Blue In BC on July 15, 2024, 08:28:40 PMWhile I said we didn't appear to add any new injuries, the daily report shows a bunch of starters as DNP. Bryant, Demski and Oliveria but I think this is maintenance.  This has been a carry over for a couple of weeks.

Question: do other teams give so many players so many "vet days" of no practice?  Anyone follow the practice reports of other teams?  After our bad/slow 2024 start, and after 2 years of GC disappointment, should we eye a shift away these "vet days"?

Anyone ever notice that warm-ups @PAS for many other teams on gameday are highly regimented while ours appear to be lackadaisical?  I sometimes wonder if clamping down a little tighter might improve things at the margin...

Is this weekend the first doubleheader of the regular season?  Strange it took this long.  TSN working the schedule a little wiser this year.

Thanks to barbk in the pickems thread pointing out the times and that there will be 30mins (plust?) overlap between games, so adjust PVRs appropriately.

Case and Jones added to AR today. Thing could change before the weekend, but really like these guy.

Jones 6'2" 235 LB excellent size and very good closing speed.

Case 5'10 182 WR/KR with excellent speed, and very good hands.

incorrect LDC is always the game to go to. You don't know what your missing.

We know that Bryant was nicked a couple of weeks ago. Oliveria has had issues since TC. So it's no surprise they are not being pushed in practice and being given time to " heal " as the week progresses. Demski plays a very physical game but I didn't notice any specific issue from the game.

At times some of the not practising limitations are just maintenance issues on older players.

It's hard to tell if the Bombers do it more than other teams, but it's an interesting question.
One game at a time.

Smith and mitchell have been moved to practice roster.any word on Lucky W? OShea seems to always make the new guys wait, even when its obvious us they can help us.That it took this long to get Jones in is a case in point

At Monday's practise, Whitehead had second team reps on offense and was shagging kicks with Smith and Case.   Case took Demski's spot with the 1s in Demski's absence..he appears to have climbed the depth chart above Mitchell who was with the 2s and moved back to practice roster with Smith.

If practise week ends how it started, looks like Case is our back up WR and returner; also looks like Garbutt slots in...he was getting reps with 1s.
