Nothing was going to change. Especially with all the cuts in the papers...we are lucky to get what we get. The best information we usually get comes from Campbell or from those in the know on this site...

Unless I'm counting wrong, I see they are short some nationals for starters. Assuming they sort the same way as the Esks with the starter being the name closest to the position I only see 9 starting Nationals.
I don't want to take anything away from the Bombers because they are a good team but I feel like we've matched up well against them in the Mike Reilly era the last few years. And we seem to be able to win at IGF even when the Bombers are playing well. So given that we're getting some help back on the OLine and in the receiving core, I think we can win this one if the Dline can have a big game pressuring Nichols and stuffing Harris (the Esk killer) without Mondo in the lineup.
Not expecting us to win in a route, but I am cautiously optimistic that we can pull it out.
That's my biggest concern as well but I'm hopeful that Bowers and Cummings can fill the void in the short term.
I think bowers and Cummings will be fine but instead of rotating with Sewel they have Moore instead. I think Winnipeg is going to try and take advantage when Moore is in.
Defensive line without Sewell is a huge concern for me.
The defensive line is the backbone of this team and Sewell is the best player on it. Thankfully he's only one-gamed and not six-gamed as we need him playing against the western teams.
