Uhhhh ever heard of the CRUMBACK?

Yeah that's the thing... of course Schoen wanted to play, or at least he was willing to play. That's how players are wired. They need to be protected from themselves. The training staff and coaching staff both wear this because they have the responsibility to keep guys off the field if they aren't ready. I don't expect any accountability from the team because no one in the media challenges them. I watched the O'Shea presser from today and the first media guy to ask questions and the lady after him... yikes..... they both seem like they don't care or don't understand what they are seeing. I was waiting for someone to ask "why the hell was he even on the field?" but it never happened.

I literally turned it off when Crum threw it out of bounds on 3rd and 20 with a minute and a half to go. I checked the score hours later and saw OTT won. That is unbelievable. BC has some serious problems on defence.

That rule doesn't count for the total number of required Canadians, only for starters. So for example we could start Willie as a nationalized American and only have to start 7 additional actual Canadians - maybe Oliveira, Demski, Clercius, Neuf, Kola, Wallace, Kramdi and then go all American on the DL. But we'd still have to have at least 20 actual Canadians on the active roster, even if Willie was declared a nationalized American. Furthermore we could declare Kyrie a Designated Nationalized American and have him split 50% of snaps with Kramdi, while starting J.Jones or Ayers at WIL. So essentially we start 2.5 more Canadians than we are required to.

You can go 20 Canadians and 2 Global or 21 Canadians and 1 Global

Burn down the university!

Wilson, Kramdi, Kornelson, Peterson, Vanterpool IN Logan, Schoen, Cobb, Schmekel, Weitz OUT Wallace is a GTD

CFL transactions page says Cobb goes to the PR and Matthew Peterson comes back on the AR. Apparently Eli and Vibert were splitting time at left guard on Wednesday so I guess if Wallace and Vanterpool are both out then probably Vibert comes on as the 6th and Eli starts at LG.

The official party area on the east side of the stadium is actually great. Last game there was a wrestling ring set up and local wrestling going on. There is always live music. They could use one more bar area to keep the beer flowing freely but otherwise it's a really good time.

Tracker disagrees, everyone

I also would have preferred a win

There's a Schoen interview in the Sun today which would be a little strange if he is injured again. Usually injured guys don't talk to the media. Obviously he isn't 100%, we all saw him pull up at the end of the game, but seems like he is "ok" to me. https://winnipegsun.com/sports/football/cfl/winnipeg-bluebombers/blue-bombers-dalton-schoen-thrown-right-back-into-labour-day-fire?itm_source=index

Guilty conscience because he knows Schoen shouldn't have been playing

Gonna need huge games from Demski and Willie tonight

I'm surprised Houston didn't get on

Woodbey joins the fray at Adams' expense. Officially going all-Canadian on the DL interior.

Yeah you're both right but I still think they're going to do what I said

I think Weitz will come off for Cobb. Schoen, Cobb, Houston ON Sterns, Weitz, Mitchell OFF

You think O'Shea would start Clercius over Woli if he had them both healthy?

Seemed like they wanted to let Clercius run with that spot. Although now that we're sometimes starting 3 Canadian receivers, there still could have been room for Woli. Even in a backup role.

He looked really poised and professional in his appearances, it would be great to get him here this season if he doesn't catch on to anyone else's PR

Doubt they start Cobb. They'll wait to the last minute to see if Demski is healthy. Wheatfall-Schoen-Demski-Corcoran-Clercius Or Wheatfall-Schoen-Moore/Echols-Corcoran-Clercius Either way you need Cobb in there as the 6th. I expect Corcoran to start though and one of the new guys to get in only if Demski is still hurt.

Sure, he might offend a few of the ‘bluenoses’ with his cocky stride and musky odours. Oh, he'll never be the darling of the so-called ‘City Fathers’ who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards, and talk about ‘What's to be done with this Luke Willson’?

100% this rings alarm bells. It seems like one or both could be down long term.

Putting in Houston for Dexter Lawson seems like a no brainer now
