Demski won't be playing. You don't get over a Hamstring injury in 3 weeks.

All depends on the severity.

That said, it's unlikely Demski plays on Sunday.

[Stickem]

Looks like a loser being fielded tomorrow...When we get buried officially for 25' tomorrow, I think it's best to pull the plug on the author of this pathetic line-up.....one that's guaranteed to put this club to bed for the season....What a way to end a Cup year ...pathetic...I hope we come to our senses and at least have Peterson rostered as Brady's backup for cripes sake...That's only one glaring mistake and obvious to all

[Noeller]

Top to bottom this just looks like so much more talent than we have...

 

 

[BomberBall.]

O’Shea is nothing, if not consistent.  What an absolute turd of a lineup.

How about Saturday?

You shouldn't put a quarterback back on the field with a mangled throwing hand either but anything is possible!

[HardCoreBlue]

MTL with 4 dropped passes, 2 missed field goals that clank off the bar, Houston and Nichols with 2 pass knockdowns each, SC on point, Kramdi and Jones with one forced fumble each, Special Team coverage average and consistent, BO with 150 rushing yards, 70 yards catching, 2 key blocks to keep ZC upright, Holm with a pick six, Wilson with 2 TD grabs, WJ with 3 pass knockdowns, ZC clean, upright and focused, Laval KR touchdown and JT able to breathe, stand up and not fall down, we win they lose easy peasy. 

I'm going all in, house everything.

Wish me luck.

Once again, I am pissed at the approach taken in a home Grey Cup year.

Whatever the idea of the braintrust was, it was incredibly stupid.

Biggest game of the yr...Likely our worst and poorest thought out lineup of the yr...just pathetic...but again, not shocked in the least...self sabotage once again...definitely time to cut bait with Osh...win or lose this game...its time

If we do scratch out a win it will not be because of this brilliant use of who we have under contract...

I can tell you several instances guys said thanks...but going with a different opportunity...

Sad eh? And wasn't a stretch and going out on a limb with wild conspiracy rhetoric...just based on what we have seen..what we know...and who's in charge...hopefully for the last game...I want a win...expect a loss and one where we were never really in it...and I am sure we will see a couple real stupid ingame decisions and a good chance we get schooled again in second half adjustments...hope I wrong in that prediction tho...

I’m pretty sure Eugene Lewis was one. I know they were going after him.

Eugene went with a higher offer.  My question to Booch was what players left and stated it was due to being unhappy being a Bomber.

OK now that's just too far fetched! 😂

For sure, 4-6 weeks depending on the severity. 3 weeks...not gonna happen.

Would you be surprised if Demski started? Osh played Schoen with a torn ACL.

WTF are we dressing 10 linebackers this team lacks a pass rush especially when they decide to field 3 d linemen

man, If demski is that close, even if he goes what level of play is he gonna be able to bring? Don’t like that. No Demski and if we stay married to the old guys on the dl, that’s soo hard to over come. 

I'm really hoping that Osh is playing with the roster to mess with the Als and Demski doesn't play. Like others have said, a hamstring doesn't heal in 3 weeks.

Not true at all. I get your point on the make up of this roster but this is simply not true. We have not lost many people for any other reason than GM incompetence. We've heard time and time again how players wanted to stay but the phone never rang. Name this long list of players we wanted to keep but said no and back it up with something more than a I overheard this at the gym or trust me. I can show several media reports of interviews of high profile guys leaving because we wouldn't pay them so surely you can show some interviews straight from the players mouths, not yours, where they stated they were leaving no matter what.

I'm not being a **** about this but again you are letting Walters off the hook when you insinuate that there is no way he could have signed some guys.

I know of a couple instances ...but you don't believe anything I say and oppose it incessantly so not gonna go on and on with it. 

You can't isolate just the instances where we dropped ball...and i agree with you that in several instances how we went about some negotiations was too little..too late...or a futile attempt after the fact when we realized that guys just weren't gonna wait on us and give us the family discount..and were in scramble mode

Also we have to realize whom the HC had said in their discussions with g.m as to who he wants...doesn't...or should be priority...cause that's also a huge factor in things....and type of player he wants and the scouting team goes out and tries to appease him. Its not just the g.m vision...if anything he has the least input as save for cdn college draft work he is not the guy with boots on ground working guys out..at random workouts...bird dogging other leagues practices

You are the one saying its a long list. You are the one with the "gym" fetish of hearing rumors...whatever that fixation is for you i have no clue..but that's not where i get my info...but I do go to several gyms...facilities..both sides of the border...work out with and also train players in the CFL..NCAA and NFL...so maybe that's your reason?? Or you did some research on me and put 2 and 2 together and got 22...not 4...I dunno...u tell me

And u just encapsulated most your defence "media report" and that's not where you get the real tea..and most won't air much via media in such a small league...next time I will transcript things just for you...

I've never left walters off hook....but hes not the more problematic issue here...if anyone is letting someone off the hook its you and defence of Osh...hes made same fatal flaws how many yrs now...and looks set up to again...so obviously isnt that bright...and regardless of who or what any g.m would bring in...osh will still coach and roster like osh...

Played him in 2023 as well when he couldn't run...with 4 others that yr...garuanteed he will again.

Only way he won't play if Demski himself says its not the best for team

Osh doesn't have the mental capacity for those types of games...thats just his poor traits showing...nothing more...nothing less

Knowing Griffin is ready...arguably one of our better defenders and most versatile 2 yrs running and can play sam..hb..cb...safety..how hes not on for Lawson Jr is a joke...and before anyone says maybe hes not 100 percent healthy...well when has that stopped Stupid from rostering a guy before....I can think of 6...7 instances...plus fact tomorrow Demski is a GTD and hasn't practiced in weeks...but Griffin has been...just the fact he is an uncertainty now tells you...he not really ready...but why rest him an extra week so if we advance could make a diff in EF...

My thoughts exactly regarding Demski. If by some miracle we win, MAYBE he will be available next week. I guess it depends on the severity of the injury, but these things do take a long time. Lets ask Alexander, he missed lots of games after he re-injured his hammy.

Every other team playing this week is dressing 8 d linemen. But hey, when you're last in the CFL regular season in sacks (23), you dress 6, a bunch of special teamer LB's, and hope JT has his once in a lifetime Aaron Donald game.
