Señor Landry on twitter said that Mann (hamstring) and Slaton (unknown) are doubtful for this game.

We'll be pulling guys off the street to suit up at this point. One step forward and four steps back. I've never seen injuries this bad to one teams rb's and receivers. All early in the year as well.

I have contacted the Argonauts for a tryout, I run the 40 in 16 seconds with a 3" vertical, Argoholic if you can beat that give them a call!!

Milanovich post game said that Slaton suffered a stinger.

Andrew Harris listed as doubtful and Dante Marsh out for the Lions.

[argotom]

I am calling for the Mash unit to piece together a second win in a row.
Will be away for the next 2 weeks, let's keep it together team and fellow posters.
Go Argos.

Looks like Barnes is in the lineup!

[Wobbler]

Maurice Mann, John Chiles, and Jarred Fayson have each been added to the 6-game IR. We now have 10 players on our 6-game list, which is terrible, but Edmonton actually has more (11). I'd take their list over ours, though, because it's a pretty even mix of positions.

It never ends!

Hopefully we'll get through the next three games before the bye without any more damage, and we can field a healthier line-up for the stretch run.

I am glad to see Molden back in the lineup, as for Robinson, is he hurt? If not I would dress him in front of Rosamunda...he (Robinson) has played well this season IMO.

Brutal. Hopefully some of these guys can get healthy soon.

[Stevoman]

All comes down to how well the Argos D confuses and frustrates Kevin Glenn. The more they can get to him or force him to make quick decisions, the more mistakes he is likely to make. Even with our makeshift offence, I feel like we can score enough points but our D needs to be big.

[ArgoRavi]

With Hamilton losing again today, the Argos have an opportunity to take a stranglehold on the East Division over the next week. In a scheduling quirk, the Ticats will have two games in hand on the Argos when they play on Labour Day.

[Wobbler]

It's somewhat reassuring that we've achieved some stability in the secondary. On the chart Smith and Underwood have swapped positions this week, but we've been fielding essentially the same five guys for several weeks. I thought it was quite telling that when Ware came off the IR a few days ago he went to the PR; we seem to like the current guys.

[paulwoods13]

We need to find a way to win against B.C. and in Edmonton to take a huge lead in the division, and then start getting healthy. It is brutal that we have lost three more receivers (especially Chiles) for six games. We have to get some new receivers in here for depth purposes, but good luck to them learning the offence. We also need to really get the run game established -- made an excellent start on that last Tuesday, now let's build on it.

I agree. Secondary has looked good of late. I hope Molden picks up where Robinson left off because Robinson has been playing quite well.

[Wobbler]

It seems that Travis Lulay is essentially ready to return. BC isn't going to sit the "player of the week", but I won't be surprised if Lulay takes his first reps of 2014 tomorrow. Hopefully it'll be after Glenn throws his fourth interception...

[Argocister]

GAME DAY TORONTO!!! Are you ready ? .....sorry guys I think I need a twitter account.


Looking forward to a fun game ..... Looking forward to seeing Barnes ...and Molden....... Looking forward to an open dome?
I want to see the D and O continue their progression from the last 2 games ..... And shutting the QBs down from the Lions.
Big test for our secondary as the Lions have some good receivers, but I think the Argos can handle it.

And I want to hear it from the crowd! I'm bringing a bunch of fans so we will be doing our part.
Have a good game everyone and GO ARGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS!

[Deerkeeper]

Pretty quite here. Everyboby must be at the game. 10 to 3 now and it looks like the Argos may finally be beginning to arrive for the game.

Receivers are not impressive so far. Butterfingers.
