鈥淭here鈥檚 been some ups and downs, especially for me, personally,鈥� said Emilus, 28. 鈥淚 was hurt early in the season (ankle), then being hurt again midseason (knee). It was a real challenging season, physically and mentally.鈥�

The six-foot, 200-pound Montreal native still caught 37 passes for 588 yards and two touchdowns in seven games.

鈥淕oing through the injuries he鈥檚 had this year and see him just keep pressing, keep pressing, and make good decisions about himself, and thinking about the team long term and sit with the coaches (to recuperate),鈥� said Saskatchewan quarterback Trevor Harris. 鈥淭his guy鈥檚 a future hall-of-famer, man, and it鈥檚 an honour to suit up next to him.

鈥淧eople don鈥檛 understand what he does 鈥� aside from what everybody seeing him catch passes and getting up field. He鈥檚 got some insane highlight reels 鈥� he鈥檚 got vice-grips for hands. But he blocks like an O-lineman, man. He鈥檚 an animal.鈥�

Emilus, who led all pass catchers with nine catches for 100 yards and two touchdowns in Saskatchewan鈥檚 24-21 victory over the B.C. Lions in the West Final, said the whole receiving corps has shared the wealth all year.

鈥淥ur receiver group is really unselfish and we all know that the ball鈥檚 gotta be shared,鈥� he said. 鈥淭he receiver room just wants to play good football and obviously show everyone what it can do.鈥�

Emilus also credited Harris for the success he and his fellow pass catchers have achieved.

鈥淗e鈥檚 special,鈥� he said. 鈥淧eople might think his age (39) is gonna slow him down but really, he always does something special, from his IQ or anything else. He puts the ball in the right place where it needs to be to make things happen.鈥�

It will also be special to play against the Alouettes.

鈥淚t鈥檚 my hometown,鈥� he said. 鈥淚 grew up watching them when I was young. It鈥檚 the first Grey Cup I鈥檓 playing in, so obviously, that鈥檚 special. And I know what we鈥檝e got to do in order to win this game.鈥�

But it won鈥檛 be easy.

鈥淚t鈥檚 definitely going to be a clash,鈥� Emilus said. 鈥淏oth teams are playing great football right now. It鈥檚 the best team out of the East, it鈥檚 the best team out of the West. So, we鈥檒l just have to lace them up and play a good game.鈥�

The prospect of winning the Grey Cup on the home field of their hated rivals, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, adds to the intrigue.

鈥淲e know the rivalry between us and the Bombers and having the chance to win on their home turf is something that we have in mind, what we want to accomplish, and that鈥檚 definitely a motivation,鈥� Emilus said.

While Emilus grew up in Montreal, Roughriders kick returner Mario Alford played for the Alouettes before they traded him to Saskatchewan in 2022 for a sixth-round pick in 2023.

But Alford tried to play down the revenge angle on the eve of the match.

鈥淭hat ship鈥檚 been sailed,鈥� he said. 鈥淏ut I鈥檝e still got it in the back of my mind, if you know what I mean. So, they traded me away but whatever, I鈥檓 past that now. I just want to play to win.

鈥淚n a big game like this, it would be special to win, period. But against them, for sure. But no hard feelings. Just part of the business at the end of the day.鈥�

Alford was limited 11 games due to injury (hip) this season, but still returned 44 punts for 476 yards (10.8-yard average) and 31 kickoff returns for 876 yards (28.3-yard average), including one 99-yard touchdown.

Alford, 34, has enjoyed a lot of success playing on the Winnipeg Blue Bombers turf, including one memorial one.

鈥淚 think it was the Banjo Bowl,鈥� recalled the five-foot-eight, 177-pound Greenville, Ga., native. 鈥淚 was sick, we were all sick with some kind of flu and I was sick as a dog that game. I came out here and ran one back and I was so sick that day.

鈥淚 always play well out here,鈥� he said. 鈥淏ut we鈥檙e playing against Montreal. It鈥檚 a different team and it鈥檚 a big game, so they鈥檙e gonna come ready and we鈥檙e gonna come ready.鈥�
