The 72nd Grey Cup was the 1984 Canadian Football League championship game that was played at Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton, between the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. The Blue Bombers dominated the Tiger-Cats in a 47-17 victory.
Winnipeg Blue Bombers (47) - TDs, Willard Reaves (2), Joe Poplawski, Stan Mikawos, Jeff Boyd; FGs, Trevor Kennerd (4); cons., Kennerd (5).
Hamilton Tiger-Cats (17) - TDs, Dieter Brock, Rocky DiPietro; FGs, Bernie Ruoff; cons., Ruoff (2).
Before the game, most of the experts believed this was a mismatch on paper, and they turned out to be correct.
But not before the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, surprised Winnipeg, and its fans, by jumping to an early 14-3 first quarter lead. Winnipeg's quarterback, Tom Clements was ineffective in the opening 15 minutes, getting picked off two times by Felix Wright and Mark Streeter. Both interceptions led to Hamilton scores. Former Bombers pivot Dieter Brock scored on a 15-yard scamper, and completed a seven-yard pass to Rocky DiPietro for the other major.
