Does anyone know what happened to the 3rd scrimmage? Was it cancelled with the wildfires and subsequent move back to Surrey?
While most positions have likely been locked up, it would be nice to say players move up the depth chart on the basis of an impressive final outing.

The third scrimmage was replaced by an extra practice today before the regular practice week begins Monday.
The Lions still have to remove three backups from the active roster but I don’t think there’s much doubt about who will be involved. The Lions have 23 Americans on the roster plus QB Michael Reilly, 21 nationals plus QB Nathan Rourke and 2 Globals. They need to remove three Americans by game day. Barring unexpected injuries, that will likely be RB James Butler, OL Kent Perkins and WR Keon Hatcher. That leaves 6 Americans and rookie national Court Hammond to rotate on the defensive line.

I think you will simply see 3 go onto the 1G injured list for either a legit minor ailment or a nagging hangnail injury. All teams currently show more than the limit on their active rosters. Riders have already declared their obvious 6G injuries and still have 49 on their active roster. The roster moves involving 1G injuries never show up on the team websites until their active rosters are submitted 24 hours prior to game time.

I feel very optimistic about our on field performance this season and hope that success will energize the sale of the team to local dynamic ownership that can connect with the community. Cant continue and survive this way much longer.
