Injury thoughts?

Demski's good to go and no one else on the IR matters at this point, go with what got you there

 Strev17 moving well. Spoke with him last night. Sounds like he is ahead of schedule.

Put him out there Sunday!  He's played with worse!

Is Cole hurt?  If he's not hurt, I would see if we can find a way to get him on.  That would probably mean no Ayers.  I'd say whoever is better at the run is who you want out there Sunday.

I also question Nick Taylor.  Did he do enough in the WDF?  What was his stat line?  Anyone have an opinion of his effectiveness that day?  At least he didn't get fooled by the fake punt.

Maybe Nick is there more for BA37 insurance.

If you really wanted Cole on there, taking Nick off would be a way to do it.  I have no opinion either way as I didn't study what Nick did in WDF.  If Nick is 100% healthy, that's a bonus for sure.

I go Taylor over Cole.  4 tackles.  Good insurance for BA.

Agree, with Kelly out we need Taylor to back up dbs/safety

Who gets Noah's spot?  Based on the injury report, he's done for the year, and my guess is done as a Bomber.  He's literally the most-injured guy we've had in a long time.

Great question, not sure! Bridges?

That's a ratio change so not likely unless he replaces Taylor. If we lose 1 or 2 Canadian DB's we'll need Ayers on ST's.

Getting Woods or Adams on the AR comes at the cost of Fox? I'm not sure who is the most healthy. Fox seemed to be higher up the depth chart at this point but we're playing a different team and the need might change.

IMO any changes will be some domino impact as the result of two Canadians that probably won't play. There was a comment that Noah Hallett is finished for the year so it appears the Canadian depth will change.

It's a problem but it's not as bad as 2023.

I am not sure how well Fox played in the final but guessing he did well. 2 DT.

I think we already have enough injury and Grey Cup threads. Demski already announced he is good to go.

Disagree it's not an injury thread and people are having a good convo here.

Where is the depth chart for the Grey Cup? It's usually out by now.

Letting woli run a few laps to give him one more shot at playing tomorrow.

Ok. I found the depth chart on Facebook. Kelly and Hallett out. Charbonneau and Weitz ( global ) in as the alternative for a Canadian roster spot.

Charbonneau has played on ST's this year and done ok. Weitz only played a couple of games when Canadian injuries were an issue earlier. He was invisible but that might not have been a bad thing. I have no real insight on what if anything he added etc.

Obviously the decision was made to not add Woli. I'm ok with that but still think we're thin at receiver and we have 2 that are less than 100%. Doesn't bode well for Murphy to not be considered.

I suppose MCI or Augustine are next men up if we have some hiccups at receiver. Whitehead will be the 1st to rotate in and / or be injury replacement.

Hopefully we find a away to use Wheatfall more often to surprise the Argos?

Interesting that Adam Bighill has not given up on his football playing days.  He is still an asset to the Bombers and I wish him well.

Sure. If we can a a way to retain him that fits into the SMS, ratio and role to be played. It's not impossible that he sticks as the MLB and Jones slids back out to WIL. Bighill's SMS was not that high compared to others but it's worth noting.

Have to find money to keep Ford and Holm. 4 of our OL, Lawler and Schoen are also potential free agents. This could go a bunch of different directions.

Generally I think we might have some 2024 SMS left the way the season played out. So we'll see if they have some early signing in Dec to lock up a couple of players.
