Ed Tait piece from Monday practice says Dressler returns this week, but still no Johnny Adams. Also, Trent Corney and Bruce Johnson questionable for this week, while Randle sat out yesterday but should be good to go Thursday (took a vet day)......

Curious what happens if Johnson comes out (maybe a good thing, depending on back-up...)

Bruce Johnson's right hand appears to be taped up today. He's not practising and didn't yesterday either. #Bombers

Travis Hawkins would go in for Johnson

what was a promising secondary now have 4 new faces that was not here last year. 

Billeck said Fogg was directly replacing Johnson, but he was waiting for 1v1's to know more...

Gross. I thought Fogg was pretty terrible against Calgary. 

This will be interesting...Hamilton won't have ZC, but they are a pretty physical team....the kind, we have struggled with. 

Bombers will have to crank it up to match.     At times, we still look pretty soft, all round...

If they do that.....winnable game.

Pretty scared to see what Simoni Lawrence does against our oline and slow release QB. 

Move Leggett back to the secondary already!!!  Put Burnett in at SAM...  way better option than starting a guy that we just signed...

Actually this might be our most winnable game in our first 6

Masoli is no Zach Collaros - so if Richie Hall can design a game plan which combines a bit more risk-taking, bull-rushing and closer coverage the bomber d might be able to hold Hamilton down.

On the other side of the coin I'm still astounded Bob Wylie (world's greatest o-line coach) can't get Willy a tiny bit more time. Simoni might have a field day against our sluggish OTs, not to mention Goosen in the middle.

Hamilton has 13 sacks in two games. Be afraid Willy....they are coming for you.

guess I'm not seeing what you're seeing but I thought Goosen has been playing okay

It's going to be fugly.  

Well at least the Blue have one more week to get something, anything, positive going away from IGF.  I fear, as others have mentioned, that another dreadful performance at home will leave us with tiny crowds and mostly apathetic fans the rest of the season.  And that for better or worse, would certainly bring about change. 

I don't expect them to win but I do expect them to try. I haven't seen much of that so far this season.

Go out and compete like your jobs are on the line.

I'm pretty sure you've been given bad information.

yup if you don't have the Tigercats locked in on Draftkings and the TSN pool then you need to re-examine your draft skills.

A fair bit of howling will rattle IGF before the crowds simmer down to apathetic.

You may be right. And if this was a few years ago, I'd agree 100%.  I don't know...I think people are more down on this team organization than they have been in quite some time.

If things start ugly on the 14th I think you'll see more people beating the traffic than booing the team.

Those are exactly my sentiments. The 'Boo Birds' have already left. Those that are still at IGF are the ones that will just walk away. Enough is enough.

It makes me sad to hear the team being boo'd ...

Not just Lawrence. I expect Hamilton will send their whole wrecking crew into our backfield, like they did last year when they crushed us 52-26.
