Anybody know whats going on as of Sundays practice?

Moore is a definite no go as is Vega. Renaud back and Wild possible. Also Johnny Sears in for Bruce Johnson, who suffered a heel contusion in the BC game...

 

You forgot Neufeld, remember him???  He occasionally plays a game now and than but make no mistake he is going to be a cornerstone of the Bomber all Canadian O-line well into the future.  In 2013 Kyle Walters went down to the cross-roads and made a deal with the green-horned devil to ensure it.  (This is not criticism just apathy mixed with disgust which is often mistaken for criticism). 

 

I'm afraid we have almost no chance of beating anybody sans Ottawa without Willy in the lineup.

Kevin Glenn would sure look good in Blue and Gold right about now.

Hamilton is coming on and Collaros is proving to be more effective than Willy.

 

 

Ricky Ray sure would look good in Blue and Gold right about now! 

 

Hamilton is coming on and Collaros is proving that if he gets any sort of pressure on him and if he is forced to throw from the pocket that he is absolutely useless. 

Buggered his foot... Maybe turf toe or something.

Crap.... (Shaking my head)...

These are cold hard facts opinions.

nice. And i agree.. Glenn being a bomber would have been a horrendous move and set us back years..

Moore has a high ankle sprain. Turf toe was his previous unjury that he already returned from.

Never say never. Anything can happen in the CFL and Brohm may be a pleasant surprise.

Unfortunate really. When he plays Moore is as good as anybody.

1290 just stated that Willy will be participating in practice today. Will take some throws and see how it feels.

I swear Willy is as tough as nails.

I swear Willy is as tough as nails.

You mean that Willy is as hard as nails.  I'm pretty sure you meant to say HARD.

Yeah, hard and Willy just seem to be synonymous. This kid is one tough s.o.b. AND twice the qb. that Collaros is.

I'm not a doctor, but aren't those both injuries that tend to linger for a whole season?  Too bad, but lots of players have the odd season plagued by a couple injuries. I'm expecting that's what this is, and am not on board with everyone declaring him the "new Buck Pierce".  Seems we do that a lot here.  To me, only Cory Watson has reached that level of fragility on the team so far.

 

And I fully expect Willy to play next weekend at this point.

Well, the turf toe Moore already returned form so I assume that one is healed.  High ankle sprains can be longer, depending on the severity.  From what I’ve seen they are typically 3-6 week injuries. 

 

With Willy practicing today, I am cautiously optimistic he might actually play this week, but I also think this might be some mind games being played by the Bombers, so the Ticats won’t know which QB is starting.  Realistically, if Willy is back next week I’d be ecstatic, based on how the injury initially looked.

Based on what? (Serious question).

It's almost impossible to have turf toe heal while playing a sprinting sport, more likely it's at a tolerable pain level.  I got by by taping my toe to the next one with the help of some padding in between them to create rigidity.  Won't be better till the offseason, but if it's splinted right it's unlikely to get too much worse.

We don't really know what we have yet with Brohm.  I'll go into the game cautiously optimistic. 

 

I hope you're considering that we could very well be in position to be tied with BC if we manage to pull this game out. Unfortunately, I fear that Brohm is more similar to Mike Quinn or Tee Martin then any competent backup. 

 

We have to hope our current management are better at evaluating QB than what was happening then. Should you be right it will be another long day and more trolling from the inbreads.

If Willy doesn't play -- and I expect he will -- then we are in tough.

 

Heck, if Willy does play we're in tough. 

that ******* kid takes such a beating...I don't know how he's not crippled, never mind threatening to play...

As competitive as Willy might be I would hope he doesn't play if there is a chance he can make it worse and be out for a long time.

I hate it when the McGavins and the Dempsters troll this site....just want to turn them into toast...

I haven't personally examined his toe. What I meant was that he returned to play following the turf toe injury.

Coach did say on his show that Willy says he'll be alright, and that was from the hospital bed with intravenous lines in both arms.

But all kidding aside, Willy would play if he was given the choice, he just wants to.

Don't know if there is an actual injury there, but he must be as sore as hell.

Do we want him in there? Sure do. Maybe if he's just sore and not injured. It is his throwing arm after all.

I have the feeling that if Willy does throw today, and is somewhat successful, O'Shea will let him start.

Just hope it's not based on a premature evaluation.

I'm pretty sure he's basing it off the hits and the beatings Willy has taken yet he still comes back to play.  So he's either playing hurt, or he's takes a licking and keeps on ticking.  Either way, I'd say he's pretty freaking tough considering how some QB's fold.

Willy Watch: Drew in full gear today tossing lightly, 10-15 yard passes max here in the early going.

I kind of want to make sure Willy gets healed and let Brohm step up for the game this time; I just don't want to see WIlly hurt more than needed against an Eastern team whom we do not NEED to beat; yes it would be nice but if we won our Western games we wouldn't need to worry about Hamilton.  I also believe Brohm has a chance of beating Hamilton; if he had a chance of beating any team it would be an Eastern team.  I would rather have willy for the BC game then have willy hurt in this game and lose the series to BC in the next game.
