He'll be a game time decision. I'll bet he'll play (because the depth behind sucks to the extent that Demski at 50% is better than them). I'm hoping otherwise, but I'll bet he'll be ineffective because injured, and unfortunately, I wouldn't be surprised if he's reinjured because he's not really ready to come back.

I bet he plays, performs reasonably well and doesn't reinjury but if we win will remain nicked for the entire playoffs.

Here's hoping you're right and I'm wrong

If he doesn't practice then he is not 100%. Testing it in game is a recipe for disaster. Given the nature of the injury, a tear in the muscle, it would be foolish to play him in my opinion. It will just get worse.

According to Taylor this goes back to the Sask game when Zach got mad at Clercius after a blitz play. Jackson talked to Zach. then to Clercius and then MOS went and talked to Clercius. We are expecting a lot of throw the house at Zach I imagine.

That is a mistake, the last few years the bombers have played guys in the playoffs and GC that were not 100% and it came back to bit them with bad performances.

I hope they don't "Bighill" Demski...  a couple plays and then out... leaves us short at a needed position.

Well yes and no. Peterson will already be on the roster as the back up and we don't have an import RB on the PR. It's not like we'd be leaving some talented Canadian off the roster to have him on the AR.

Our PR only has Gassama and Kornelson as the Canadians remaining.

However if we want / can add back: Oliveria, Kramdi and Demski we may have a bit of an issue. Vibert would be the easy to one remove. The next 2 might not be as blunt a choice. Bailey was added in lieu of a Canadian and I'd like to see him stick on the AR. So Cobb and Ball might the ones taken off to get 3 Canadians back on the roster.

All of this depends on whether Demski plays.
One game at a time.

Every year there's always a couple of weeks that look doable but I havent pulled to pin yet.

Done this a few years back.  Mtl, TO, Ham and Ottawa.  Done on the train and one bus. Great trip. Highly suggest it.  The train trips are relaxing and it was a great time.

The article by Ed Tait on the main page suggest's that Mtl fans will be using the horns. Please tell me those things are still banned as they were in the reg season.

With Demski's injury can't risk not dressing Cobb and Corcoran as the receiver backup, not sure this is a good time to mess with Clercius, he's been steady if not spectacular, but Corcoran is not going to reach spectacular either, so leave it alone.

That's all we can do is hope our stud can find a way.  Or we win in Mtl and he is ready for Hammy with a healed hammy.  Lol

Horns were banned this year. So I doubt it.

All things considered. We are quite healthy compared to other teams for this time of year.
