iso_55 Posted July 9, 2016 Report Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) Did you guys know that Collins the receiver in the Riders game last night came from us? We dropped him from our Neg List apparently & the Riders picked him up. Edited July 9, 2016 by iso_55

They released him shortly after that and he signed with the Riders in late May. Edited July 9, 2016 by NotEZBeingGreen

That's the kind of game I'd like to see every week when teams play Saskatchewan. Hold that 'carrot of victory' tantalizingly close to the Rides' noses, then yank it away to remove all smirks and smiles. Serves their fanbase right for to trying to debase our win over Hamilton, because of...wait for it...turnovers. Let's hope for the continuation of the trend, I believe they were very close to winning a few of their early games in 2015 under Glenn but came up short repeatedly. I seem to recall that there were a couple of early OT losses that broke their whiny green hearts as well.

I think that team has real confidence in Durant right now, once they get their ratio settled and can field their best receiving core, they will be pretty good. Jonathon Newsome is the new Cam Wake... scary.

Sorry to disappoint but we are building this year. We will get better every week. The loss didn't even fizz on anyone because we know the wins will come. Riders are heading in the right direction now

rebusrankin Posted July 11, 2016 Report Posted July 11, 2016 Why did we not bring Ricky Collins to camp, he looks good thus far?

Who knows but they gave him a look and decided Adams, Mayo, Sheppard and Davis were better fits. Could have been attitude, lack of effort, drops or anything. Dressler and Smith were essential to LaPo's game plan and for marketing so they were untouchables. Edited July 11, 2016 by Throw Long Bannatyne
rebusrankin Posted July 11, 2016 Report Posted July 11, 2016 It seems like a miss by our brain trust.
17to85 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Posted July 11, 2016 Considering how good Davis has been I wouldn't cry about missing on a receiver prospect yet. Mayo has looked good too.

Atomic Posted July 12, 2016 Report Posted July 12, 2016 I'm glad we still ended up with a couple players who look pretty good but it was definitely a mistake letting Collins go. It happens.
