Quote from: Slimy Sculpin on August 12, 2026, 10:23:06 PMI don't often post or comment here but I am because,imo, Kornelson being cut was long overdue.

I wonder if Korny getting such an extended look, and more shots than normal, was mafia and fatboi hoping they found the next fatboi?

Ya, some might say Korny is roughly fatboi level... But mafia never thought so low of fatboi! I wonder in what specific way did Korny let them down vs how fatboi performed his first few seasons...
Never go full Johnston!

If I'm counting correctly this is the 5th time Kornelson has been cut by the Bombers, but he always rises again because Lawson and Schmeck are unable to stay healthy long term. I believe this move is just a convenient way to make room on the roster for players coming off the IR.  He's local, convenient and affable and he's a capable DT plugger, people need to stop expecting real DT's to chase down QB's, their #1 job is gap pluggers.  If Ceresna paid more attention to that part of his job instead of doing somersaults after sacks with Willy the D wouldn't be giving up so many horrendous rushing yards.

Quite the leap there, man.

Quote from: Blue In BC on Today at 02:18:46 PMI think we'll get Lawson back early from the 6 game IR. The downside is that he can't stay healthy. The fact we added Hazen suggests our need on the DL was slightly less with Lawson returning.

Clark must be returning as well since Novak was bumped to the PR.

Depth chart on Facebook  does show Lawson, Collaros and Broxton back. OTOH it shows Oliveria as a GTD? He's been nicked for a while. All the more reason to add Peterson as in game depth.

Roster on CFL.CA does show Clark back on AR. However Vibert doesn't show anywhere after being moved to RR then PR?

Surprised Clark replaced Novak, either Novak hasn't fully recovered from injury and needs more time or he's actually been displaced by Clark and on his way out.  Remarkably similar ST LB's, in size and age, both 5th round draft picks with Clark being drafted this year and Novak last.  Can't say I can judge their efforts on ST but maybe Clark has the potential to become a rotational LB eventually.

If Novak is healthy, this surprises me too, but maybe he's just no all the way back yet...
My wife is amazing!

Yeah I don't know why he was replaced but when Novak got bumped to PR it seemed that would happen. Novak was injured since 2025 so he may not be in game shape even now that he's healthy.
One game at a time

Novak hasn't been good on STs since his return. Clark has been more productive when he's on the field.
Don't go through life looking in the rearview mirror.
