The depth chart actually shows Fonoti at RG and Rishaw Johnson at RT. Everything else is as expected.
If that's true, I'm guessing that means Spencer comes off the roster. Herbert is in for Agnew to facilitate the new punter, but to start 3 INT lineman, they need to take another INT off the roster. Also means that Coombs will definitely be backed up by Adjei as only 7NAT starters are on the depth chart.
It's us vs the rest of the country
I also think they might have Fonoti and Johnson listed backwards; the former was a tackle in college and the latter was a guard.
The right-side of that offensive line makes me quite nervous.

Curtis Rush wrote this article for 3DownsNation today about Darson Simair. This gentleman rarely misses an Argo practise. He is in a wheelchair and has Spina Bifida. Friday, he at the game, in order to do so, he will be travelling to Hamilton by Go Bus. Then in Hamilton, he'll take local bus transit to THF. A true Argo fan. I think just to get to a regular game is inspiring, but to get himself to THF is amazing. I'll try and complain a little less and count my blessings. I also recognize that out there, there is a significant Argo Nation that still stands behind this franchise.

Is Sewell that bad at RT ?
Every time I've seen him play in game due to injuries he's looked good at the tackle spot, although at RG not so much.
Obviously Milanovich doesn't think he's ready, which is a shame. If he isn't good enough to start now, he may never be.
I'm torn about Spencer. We don't need him as a receiver - we've got lots of good options there - but I'd rather have him returning kicks than Jefferson. Spencer seems to be a bit better at it, and if Jefferson got hurt we'd have a significant problem. On the other hand, Steele has been a useful guy too.
Sewell may have to learn to be a decent CFL guard - doubt he has any future at OT when there are many star import OTs to air-lift in - brand new American guys are there to play; Nis can sit & wait and maybe "develop"; that's the fate of many former star Canadian OTs in CFL ball (the Esks interior 3 starters now: Sorenson (multi year starter at OT in US college Div I ball) at C, and O'Donnell & Rottier (both former CIS All-Canadian OTs in college ball) at the guard spots.
Coombs and Gillanders could easily be the back-up RBs behind Whitaker and I'd suggest it would be a good idea to give both some work to provide a change of pace or add some punch to the ground game (if the coaching staff cared there); Spencer might be OK as both a receiver and returner but nothing special IMO; Coombs or Adjei could play some at receiver; and that guy named Owens can still return kicks along with Jefferson.
If a "Rogers Sucks" chants starts up tonight at the game, I certainly hope it is not directed at the Argonauts newest kicker Jake.

6 pm, left for the game. got to the QEW entrance in Mississauga, saw the gridlock bumper to bumper traffic, bypassed exit , called wife so she could say "told ya so". Maybe next time. FUCK YOU ROGERS
Argos are sitting back and letting Als march down the field. This needs to change fast.
Second and three, so the Argos go for a two yarder and don't get the first down. Deja vu all over again.
