Winnipeg @ BC Pre-Game

[Throw Long Bannatyne]

Better memory than me! But only 2 of those are D. And both got destroyed by Rankin last week.

Oh, and moxey is d, but I'm pretty sure he's not much better than vaval at this point.

So all but moxey are back, what's the excuse last week, and what will be the excuse this week? If anything it'll be harder because Cody can't run like Salter...

Can't forget in that first game against the Lions the offence struggled to stay on the field in the second half, leaving the defence exhausted and primed for that late game collapse.

Going into the last regular season game.

Ceresna leads the DL with 23 DTs, 7 QS.
Fletcher 20 DTs, 6 QS.
Perkins and Wilson lead the team with 8 TDs.
Wilson needs 9 yards to get to 1000. Wilson also leads the team with 492 YAC.
Ayres leads the team with 19 STT.

[Blue In BC]

Texada transferred to PR. That suggests Moxey or Hazen will be added. Moxey would be the logical addition. Whether he starts or is depth we'll see. I believe he will be starting.

Smith listed as questionable but hasn't practised at all this week. OTOH, he missed 2 games earlier with this injury and has now missed another 2 games. He wasn't listed as "Out " so maybe there is a chance he can play.

Spread just jumped to -6.5, possibly more news out of BC of more starters taking a rest.

There are about 17 players listed as OUT on their injury report.

To be honest that's been the story of our season and I don't expect it to change this week either

This game is going to have 2 teams with polar opposite game plans--BC is resting their stars for their playoff run, and our guys are literally playing for their jobs next year and hopefully a playoff spot. I would expect our players emotions and intensity will be high vs BC just trying to get through the game and not getting hurt. This game shouldn't be close....but of course it will. Under these conditions, if our defense gets lit up and we lose the game, Younger should be gone on the spot, but I don't think it will come down to that, but if anyone should be feeling the heat, Younger should be.
