What’s his injury issue that has cooked him?
Besides his tiny peaheart
He’s had Achilles problems hasn’t he? That’s massive warning signs for a big man.
Go ■■■■ yourself, Paddy Ryder.

Chronic Achilles problems. Barely trains and is managed each week just to get him on the ground.
If Ryder finishes up this season which seems a reasonable possibility given @Aceman’s info, then it’s a pretty quick decline after being All Australian in 2017

Since they got Ryder (supposedly the last piece of the puzzle for them at the time), screwed us and disrupted our finals run, they have played in one final, and lost. Perhaps Ryder essingtoned them.

Swans wanted him in first place but afl wouldn’t let them trade.

Swans or the Saints even might consider him for a 1 year deal on minimum chips
Saints would be good, he and Carlisle could have a reminisce.

Why? They are a cooked team who need to rebuild. Why would they want an even more cooked ruckman? I wouldn’t like to see him back with us, but if you think about it, it’s the type of deal that would have Jackets putting on extra jackets. Stop-gap ruck, help Bellchambers out for another 1-2 years whilst we develop Draper. Better than Z.Clarke. Feel good story, return of a former star player.

Not that he (or we) knew it at the time but Ryder did us a massive favour by leaving.
Carlisle too.

I’m just glad he’s got all his extended family there back home in Adelaide to support him. Oh wait…

Richmond need a decent ruckman for a year or two and they are also a destination club for Indigenous players these days which was the main reason Ryder went to Port
Geelong might also be curious considering they’re going all in whilst they have the big 3
