Banjo Bowl ( early talk )

[Blue In BC]

Hopefully Collaros is fine and will play. Ditto for Bryant after having the LD game off.

Bighill is doubtful IMO even if the injury is not serious.

Riders appear to have lost 2 OL. I think it was fry that had his arm in a sling at the end of the game.

Godber hurt an ankle which usually means at least some time off. Not sure what their options are for this week.

Either team have additional injuries?

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Hard to say for sure. Obviously some big injuries on both sides. Don't expect either coache to say much before Friday's depth charts come out. Another huge game on Saturday.

Sure is. Riders have dropped from first to third in the West, one point back of us and BC. Lots to be determined yet. BC has Montreal next week and I don't see BC winning that one. We have the Banjo Bowl. Huge opportunity to potentially open a 3 point spread and put some distance between us and the Riders and Lions.

I hope Collaros is back because Strev is NOT the answer at QB.  If he's not would like to see Wilson get some reps. He throws a nice ball. I know y'all like Strev but he does not.  Admit it please.

I hope SB is back.  We need him.

Brayan and Collaros will be back, bomber win bb, take over first place, things working out the way we had hoped after slow start

I have good news for you... We have already done this!  Go Blue!

We lose the BB, riders are in first place. We beat them and we have a 3 point lead hence the term 'take over' first place

I like Wilson but disagree all regarding our backup QBs.

It's a 4 point game. It would go a long way in promising a home play off game. Might even put a strong grip on 1st place.

We want a Bombers win and a Lions loss. That would require the Lions to win 2 more games in the last 5 to pass us in the standings due to series win by Bombers. Clearly that would be the same issue for the Riders if we win Banjo Bowl.

Things would look pretty good.

Riderfans said Godber (C) returned later in the game.  His problem didn't look too bad.  I haven't confirmed yet.

Fry is probably out 4-8 weeks IMHO.

I feel SSK's pain re OL injuries.  Both of our teams have had horrible luck this season.  However, it may be worse for SSK because they spent a lot more money in FA on OL trying to get better, only to see it evaporate.

Ah, okay. Thanks kindly.

So, I had a look and there is no pregame shows on Saturday on either TSN or CTV.

As well, the Toronto vs Ottawa game starts at noon Wpg time on TSN so it will over lap the Bomber game.

The Edmonton vs Calgary game starts at 6pm Wpg time.
