#14 Jordan Ridley -- ADDITIONAL 3 YEARS (till 2029)

I groaned when second game Parker was outmarking McGrath in the backline. Too tall they reckon.

There was no match up for him, even tho there was a second gamer named Parker 190cm who looked a little too tall for Guelfi and McGrath. Iā€™m no genius but Ridley 192 cm, who is agile and actually has good skills probably wouldā€™ve been a good matchup

Kid is all class, such composure. Even that ā– ā– ā– ā–  hand pass from Ambrose that nearly got him clobbered on the last line. Should never have been dropped

Why was he out?

There isnā€™t an acceptable answer.

Great response from him so far. Not scared to go through the middle either.

Drop him next week. Too composed.

Great first half, composed and clean.

Composure is a rare commodity at Essendon. The mind boggles as to why he was dropped.

Showed exactly why he should be persisted with.

Could be one of the better medium talls in the game.

Good tank, great skills, decent hands and solid mark. He just needs games.

Composed and delivers the ball beautifully. Takes the brave kicks. Heā€™s going to be something special.

My boy. Better not get fkn dropped.

Love him back in the side but I wouldnā€™t be suprised to see him dropped for Hooker when he is fit for ā€œteam balanceā€

Love how he absorbs the physical contact from his opponent as heā€™s kicking but refuses to rush it.

Best kicking action under pressure in our side.

If he gets dropped again this year I will lose it.

He is a deadset fun.

Him and a Redman in the backline would be two seriously composed and sublime kicks.
