Calgary is another team we shouldn't have any problems with. With Lawson and JJ94 back in the lineup, our front 7 looked much better. Really impressed with MC33s play this season.
Don't go through life looking in the rearview mirror.

Sir Blue and Gold

One factor will be rest. Calgary coming off a bye. We've got 5 days off. Hasn't mattered much in the past but as an older team this is where you can start to see an impact, if in fact, it's catching up to us.

I look essentially for a home game rebound. Guys gotta be pissed that home win streak is finished.

Fingers crossed we get Demski and Lawler back. McRae filled in extremely well though.

Any word on Demski's fiance giving birth over the weekend? Exciting time for them.

Short week. Practice tomorrow and Wednesday with walk thru on Thursday?

We probably won't get anybody back from 6 game IR for another couple of weeks. SMS issue is part of the equation. However, Rose was running although not practising last week. Any of the others getting close to healthy in re-hab? Will we see anybody back for game 7?  We never hear definitive reports if a player is expected to be finished for the season.

A few players got nicked against the Als so there is probably a shuffle to and from the 1 game IR this week, again.

Unless Demski was hurt he should be back...wouldn't count on Lawler at this point.  We won't see an injury report till tomorrow.

Calgary is getting some receivers back - begelton and they signed markin michel yesterday.  Looking to be a perfect Friday night for football...I expect a win

Didn't that guy leave the CFL like 3 years ago?  Actually, come to think of it, if he can still ball, it's not a horrific choice.

Yeah - not going to say we will not have any problems with Calgary as they appear to be getting some players back however if we are on our game we should come out with a win. Nothing is as easy as we like to think in the CFL this early in the season.

I see demski is not at practice today, did his partner have the baby?


3rdand1.5

If our lines play like they did last week and we limit penalties and mistakes we should easily handle Cal. Easy for me to say....

Our O-line appears healthy and deep and Brady has really stepped-up his blocking game-I think he may be one of if not the best blocking backs today in the CFL. I liked the look with Mc Crea in the line-up. I do like Agadosi, but I think Mc Crea offers more. Demski back in for BOO is an upgrade. Buck could get really creative with Grant, Mc Crea, Demski, BO and Baily carrying the rock (I am actually pleasantly surprised and impressed with Baily's ability out of the backfield)

Defensively JJ and Lawson back made a night and day difference. Willie was simply dominant last week. Mair is nowhere near as elusive as Fajardo. If we can get the kind of pressure, we got last week on Mair it should allow the Db's to play more aggressive. IMO Swaray shows great raw abilities, I don't think it will be long before he get's just a bit more comfortable and with that I believe will come some picks. He has been in position and close, I think he is due for one soon!

Specials need a little tune-up as they were not good enough last week.

No announcement as of yet but it sounds like it could be any day now.

Because it's a home game he can probably play unless the birth is due or happens on Friday.

How long is the lady in labor??  From last Saturday all the way through this Friday?  ??? :o ;D   The impression I got (pre MTL game) was the baby was already on its way??  Demski stayed out because of a woulda coulda shoulda maybe kinda delivery date?  Someone needs to inform him those things are notoriously unreliable (been there, done that)!  :D  Maybe we should Mark Demski down as possibly out for the next 3 weeks!

(If he does leave mid-game and they deliver mid-game they should announce the new baby on the jumbotron.)

Or just let the man do what he thinks is best in supporting his partner who's having a baby. It's more important than football.

You probably think you pay his salary, too. :D
