Based on my account, these are the injuries from the LDC:

 

Nick Moore: left the game in the 4th quarter with a leg injury.  I was at the game and it looked like a hammy or quad injury, which could be a 3-4 week injury.  But could also be a bruise which would be less time missed.

 

Drew Willy: ankle injury that looked like it could have been much worse.  I was thinking he could be out for the season with how it looked.  Willy is such a warrior.  Doug Brown speculated that it was a high ankle injury and that Willy's ankle will balloon up with swelling in the next couple days and he could miss a couple weeks with the injury.  His ankle looked fine to me and seeing him run in for that TD lessened my concerns about him playing next week.  Willy could have taken some pain killers so who knows.  We will have to wait and see on this one.  My prediction is Willy starts the Banjo Bowl.  Love the comment he made that unless he's on a stretcher, he's playing.

 

Ian Wild:  I didn't even realize he was injured until after the game.  He'd be a big loss.  Anyone know the status of the injury and what he injured?

 

Kashawn Fraser:  Also looked like a leg injury.  Vega could step in if he's out for a while, but that really cuts the DL depth pretty thin. 

 

Nic Grigsby:  Left the game for a few plays but I believe he returned, so I assume nothing serious.

 

 

Lost in all the injuries is that if Wild can't go they will need a long snapper.

 

Kyle Jones or Pontbriand.

 

I thought Fitzgerald was a long snapper as well.

 

 

Not good enough to do it in the CFL.

Somehow, I can't see Kuale and Kromah better in any way than Wild and Kromah. Looks like its going to be a long game for the run-stoppers and the Sask O-linemen and their running backs have to be drooling. But Coach O'Shea says that he's not concerned......

Telling the media it's not a problem is the right thing to do but let's hope they are working on correcting things behind the scenes. It would be pretty disappointing if he was actually serious and they weren't.

Nick Moore (ankle) and Kashawn Fraser (knee) will be out a few weeks, according to O'Shea. Jason Vega will start this week. #Bombers

 

Guaranteed Romby draws back in.

Kashawn Fraser (knee) and Nick Moore (ankle) expected to be out a few weeks.  Sucks about Moore.  Jason Vega starts this week.  Still waiting on Dew Willy's x-ray results but he is expected to be fine.

so no word on the status of Matthews?

He signed with the Seahawks practice squad.

Sucks for Moore, he's having some bad luck this year.

 

I hope Romby doesn't draw back in, I'd rather roll with McGuffie to be honest. It's time to give a practice roster guy a chance.

Ian Wild (shoulder) doubtful this week.

Man having Matthews come back would of been nice. This is going to be a tough one without Moore and Wild but we really can't afford to lose.

Gotta agree with that. Whether it's putting Bolton in as the extra RB or McGuffie in as a receiver, It's time these  guys got a chance otherwise what's the point in keeping them around. They have been here a while now. Let's see what they got. 

 

Anyone go to Practice? How do Bolton and McGuffie look out there? Like they belong or ?? Probably tough to tell with them on the practice squad but still... Effort there? Getting better every day? 

Nick Moore is a high ankle sprain.  That's 3-4 weeks minimum.

Start two Canadians on the line... we're not getting much push anyway

 

Get Sears back in the lineup

We don't need to start two Canadians on the line to get Sears back in...we just need the coaches to decide that he's better than Dunn and re-install him at the SAM L'Backer position, (I think Etch calls it the dime).

 

 

That is WIL... but I agree

Etch's verbage is different for sure...the SAM is the Dollar L'Backer in his system...cute...

Regarding Matthews he's not out of the woods yet. The Seahawks made the move to bring back Bryan Walters to return kicks which means they cut Phil Bates who could conceivably take Matthews spot on the PR.

@DarrinBauming: Bryant will be in for Moore. RT @ice_matty35: @DarrinBauming Is it Romby Bryant who comes back or someone else? #Bombers

Now that's depressing...

No... I mean SAM = DIME and WIL is Dollar, ha

Romby has played in about half the games this year with nothing to show.  I've seen enough.

LOL...sorry you're right...in any event...Sears slotting in at either OLB position, (Dollar/Dime or Nickel/Wil or whatever you want to call it) is an upgrade over Dunn IMHO...Having said that we can easily have both Dunn and Sears in the lineup if Neufeld/Goosen draw back into the lineup, (as per game 1 vs Toronto)...or even if we have 3 International OL as long as Sears draws in ahead of Unamba as the DI.

Gross. I don't get the obsession with Romby, he's brutal. Can't we get a young guy to take stupid penalties and fumble the ball?

From what I've seen from McGuffie in college he would not fit the role of a Nick Moore. Completely different kind of player Unless he's changed his game since his tenure at Michigan, where he was a runningback who leaped over defenders every chance he got. Kind of an oddball.

I really hope we bring in some receiver depth soon if we are looking at Sam Mcguffie and Romby Bryant as next in line.

Sad to say, it look like Romby will be here for the duration.

You mean Nick Moore, jj, he doesn't take stupid penalties when he's healthy.
