Argos win this game to cement 2nd place in the Eastern Football Conference.

TFC plays at BMO this weekend and Wednesday, so impossible for the schedule maker to put the Argos at home. Ideally, it would be nice to stay in the East at least, I agree.

Their owners signed off on this whole schedule. If they gave a damn about their players they would have pushed back and fought for East teams at the least and not sold away 3 home games in the first place.

Polk DNP Wednesday, foot injury. He’s taken some hellacious hits this year, we need him healthy.

Hopefully Jake Herslow finally gets his much- deserved chance to play in 2026. He just could be the kind of big-play playmaker that #12’s been looking for this year.

I am pleased to see Toronto FC at the bottom of the standings again.

Yeah but if it wasn't for the Argos ruining their "pitch," TFC would win every game donchyaknow.

Polk is out, so presumably Herslow will be in.

Hunter is questionable.

Herslow, Rayam and Hickey are in. Polk, John and Neal are out. Amos is listed as a designated national, behind Hickey, but will presumably play every defensive snap except the first. If a DB gets hurt, Hickey will be able to replace.
