Took a break from the forum...much needed just enjoyed the victory organically lol Ended up leaving cus I had to work and couldn't stick out the delay...so of course they won and probably won't win another home game all year just because the world hates me:(
But my biggest takeaway from this depth chart...is no more Ellis at linebacker. I don't know if he's hurt but dude has been killing me. I don't think he was ever well suited to play linebacker, and that play where he just gave up for unknown reasons was last straw for me. I was still in the crowd at that point and everyone's face was priceless lol
2ez: Ellis was injured in the 3rd Qtr. and was 1 of 4 players put on the 6-Game Injured List on Wednesday. (also NATs Aprile, Timmis & Thomas-Erlington)
Looked back to see if the Cats have ever, in recent years, gone with only 1 RB and 1 FB dressed.
The most recent would be a couple of games in Oct. '14 when Mossis Madu, now a RedBlack, was the only dressed RB.
I heard MAYBE Ellis has a foot injury. Maybe his concentration left his body and fell on his foot on that horrible play where he just kind of forgot that he was playing in a football game
The play where Ellis stopped was due to a fan in the stands with a whistle. On that same play I thought the refs had whistled it dead and wondered why the players were still running.
Thank you so it wasn't unknown, my bad I haven't watched any highlights or replays of the broadcast. I sit in the upper deck and it's pretty rowdy while on defence so with cowbells and everyone going it just looked like he gave up. I assumed he thought he heard a whistle, was only logical explanation but from the stands I was livid lmao
Lol still love Will Hill the football player, but done with him as a member of any organization I love. He is a cancer, apparently was skipping meeting and practices or showing up late, he's a wreck off the field and sometimes on the field as we witnessed.
He'd be making tackles no doubt, but he'd also be racking up 15 yarders like they're going out of style lol
I was thinking same thing actually, I was like on TV maybe he's not as bad lol but I've had an issue with him for a while now, he did get hurt? I musta missed that what happened?
in his defense.... (and just for the sake of argument...) at least when he took a 15 yard penalty, he usually got his money's worth on it. (ref handling aside...)
Is that on the side that the play happened cus if I remember correctly that was around the 30-20 yard line.
Also lmao bout Hill, you've got that right at least. Dudes got a mean streak in him what makes him such a great player when he's actually focusing on football.
the non bench side.... i think its the east side? it's the side that feels like the north side at Ivor Wynne....
and yes, i was the idiot in the stands screaming at the defense to start getting value on the 15 yarders if they refs were going to call roughing the passer on anyone within a yard of Ricky Ray
Not single change, from their last game, among starters, for the RedBlacks. Must be nice.
Ellingson, Reed, Madu, Gascon-Nadon, Omara & Maher are all looking forward to this one, I'm sure.
Here's hoping they dress Ricky Collins Jr. with Tyms out. He was a good returner when he was with Saskatchewan. I'd rather have Collins in the line-up than the rookie Aultman at this point. One of the two will be the import game day scratch.
