Maybe, Goldie, maybe not.  SSK creamed HAM, and we hung in with SSK in both games until Zach was toast.  TOR beat HAM, and we beat TOR once.

Last week was the week of underdogs.  Shows that anything can happen.

On paper it looks like we'll get destroyed.  It'll be hard to bet WPG even if bookies give 3.5.

But the coaches/coords have to know the heat comin' their way if they don't produce.  Maybe they'll actually work this week, instead of sipping margaritas on the dock.

Strev, Hogan & Co are like "it's a long season, lots of ball to be played still", but the amount of ball left is dwindling fast and our W rivals are literally running away with it.

You'd have to think there'd be some extra impetus this week.  Then more the next week, should we lose.  They just have to find a way.  Even if it's "just Strev".  (I think it'll be Zach.)

Be an interesting game to watch with the differences in the offences,
Hamilton being way more passed base, utilizes more 6 man fronts and at times 2 backs and often a much tighter reciever formation to the ball. ( They actually try to protect blm  unique idea I know)
 We for the most part, (other than with Demski) either hand ball to Brady or drop back til qb has to bail out
 Huge advantage with Milanovich  over Hogan

Nice to see Nichols and Wilson practiced

Gives us hope if our leader is healthy enough to play as well

If not I would like to see Wilson get a package or two.  Throws a nice deep ball.

Zach? The injury report shows he's not playing this Friday.

I don't think many of us expected Collaros to play this week. It's the bigger question we don't know about his future. I find it hard to believe he won't end up on the 6 game IR. Knocked out of 3 games and wasn't allowed to play in two others as a result.

That doesn't sound good from a health point of view and that's more important than the football aspect.

I wish him well.

My post was confusing (typo) I changed to if healthy, which like BinBC says is likely doubtful for a variety of reasons.  One can dream.  My point was if both these guys play and someone Zach does, hope is back.

Seen that Streveler announced as the starter.  Get healthy soon Zach and hopefully not on the 6 game!!!!

I'd give Strev the first quarter or two do move the ball, if he doesn't, and we're getting killed, by god, please put Wilson in and see what he can do.

What's the actual CFL deadline for placing a guy on the 6GIR to still get credit for the week?  Right before the game's AR comes out?  Or earlier?

I would imagine it's this morning when game rosters are declared. Some players like Wilson or Nichols could be moved to 1 game IR, so moving someone to 6 game IR falls into the same action.

The other question is when a player is moved versus when it's announced. That never seems to be in real time.
