Game Thread: Argos vs. REDBLACKS Sunday June 29 7:00 PM

[ArgoRavi]

3 Down just reported Kelly is out until week 7.

Ryan Dinwiddie told TSN's Brit Dort last Friday that he didn't expect Kelly to play this week against Ottawa and wasn't sure at that time that he would play against Hamilton so this news from 3Down is quite consistent with what he said.

If I recall correctly, I don't believe that Kelly practised every day last week either; I think they are just being extra-cautious with this injury. If the Argos were starting the playoffs this week, I think Kelly would be playing but we're a long way from that.

Daniels, Doxtater, Grant and Haba are officially available.

It's gonna be interesting to see how the O-line lines up. If RD was as pissed as he said he was, surely Doxtater goes back in at guard, but who comes out? In my very amateur opinion, I didn't think Ergle looked bad at RT last wk. Does he stay in and Hunter move to RG? Does Hunter go back to RT and Ergle come out? Does someone else sit?

Ergle, who had Shane Ray chirping in frustration all game was shuttled to the PR earlier this week if that means anything.

Except for the Argos because they are left alone on their island. As long as Pinball and Company are in place they can continue to build a model CFL franchise.

If you truly believe that, you are way more of an optimist than I am. I can't believe Pelley would look at drawing 12k against the CFL's biggest travelling fanbase and think, "we are building a model CFL franchise."

I meant on the field for success as a winner. Off the field that's Pelleys job, unless he wants to hire a President for the Argos. Had we actually had a real President for the last 9 years at BMO for the Argos alone we would have drawn better than 12,000 the other night.

Kelly ruled out until (at least) week#7.
Sucks but the Argos are taking the responsible approach.

Grant is back in. Ergle is out, Hunter back at RT, Doxtater at LG.

Daniels in, Herslow out.

Hergott moved to the PR, replaced on the roster by Pelley.

Two new INT LBs: Martin starts at SAM, and Casey backs up at MIKE.

A few other changes but those are the main ones.

Rookie / inexperienced laden defence.

Wonder if Pelley gets any shots to play in the D-Line rotation? Ojo needs more time to "develop" i guess ? - interesting to see Ticats start this year's 1st rounder Veresuk at MLB last night.

I was expecting Donald Rutledge to win the SAM job out of camp, but he remains on the PR and has been surpassed by Jarrett Martin. Calvin Turner Jr has been released.

Rutledge was the starter there in game one, no ?

Yes he was OV, I failed to mention that.
