It’s just bad reporting overall, the context behind this situation makes it all seem very reasonable. Richmond had job opportunities in the US and to make it worth his while to stay, he needed to be at a certain pay tier. Everyone involved handled this properly, it just didn’t work out.

That makes sense.  I had read the articles about some of his off-field businesses so I knew he was already setting himself up for life after football.  The timing of it happening when he was expected to take over at one of the tackle spots is unfortunate as it lead to this type of confusion.

    60 minutes before gametime.   Sitting in the empty stands, soaking it in... First home game (covid/health stuff) in a very long time... GO BLUE!!

    Here's a cut at Week 1 roster (Need 6 Canadians on O every snap, 1 Canadian on D every snap):   QB- Collaros, Streveler, Wilson   RB- OLIVIERA,    AUGUSTINE, ROSERY, Smith*

    I thought it improved tremendously once I muted it. 😂

Really looking forward to see how Wilson looks behind centre, after giving us a promising glimpse in saskabush....He looked great once he found his groove AND IF he can back that up with another show of talent....hey, we might have  found ouselves another qb.....It'll also be interesting to see how the new pivot looks, although I guess we can't expect a helluva lot, do to his laaate arrival

I think most good teams run away from those situations.  Like will a guy who is basically telling you he only wants to keep playing for money beat out 5 other guys who actually want to play for $50,000 USD?

This is why so many starters are sitting tonight....

It’s a home and home 6 day turn around for the players. That’s about average. Even then if you want to sit lots of guys this week more should’ve played week 1 imo. We have a bunch of turn over, rust, guys who aren’t 100%, and likely a lack of on field chemistry. I wouldn’t say we’ve acted to put our self in the best position to win week 1.
