I think nifty was just stating the obvious that Flip is indigenous.

I think under Brad Scotts ethos - get everyone involved, Ie travis cloke (VFLW Coach) doing sessions with VOSSY early in preseason etc, then Ryder is another person to give some advice to Draper/ Phillips and extend a little more than the indigenous roleâŚ
He has been at AFL and VFL games, as noted in commentary.
maybe this is to replace Narkle? I think he had a similar role

Was discussed here as well:
Narkleâs signing will feature the 25-year-old spending time in the admin department, supporting Essendonâs new Indigenous Player Development Manager.
Donât think so, Narkle was in a part time one day a week role. This looks Full-Time Manager role that Ryder was in

Who says we canât have multiple Indigenous player mangers?
Could be a Rioli change
Maybe Ryder was rubbish at it

You could be right. Although i note another article (albeit not an EFC article but a newspaper article) said this:
Maybe Paddy was a part timer and the revamped Indigenous program requires someone full time with appropriate qualificationsâŚ
Can someone tell us what actually happened here?
He was welcomed back (at least by the club and through itâs media channels, if not the supporers) to quite a bit of fanfare and what, a few months later he is just gone?
IF he is out maybe he wasnât any good at the role
Turfed at end of 3mth probationary period / left himself
No different to any other employee scenario
Has he gone?
Lasted longer than Thorburn, so I guess our recruitment decision making is improving.
note: I have no idea if he is still at EFC or not.

Yeah and that speculation could well be the case. I just wondered if someone here actually knew for sure what happened.
Any recent pics of him on the EFC site?
If he is gone, canât say I am sorry after what he did post saga

Yeah Iâm pretty surprised that itâs been swept under the rug - youâd think a journo wouldâve at least reported something, given it was a semi-big deal with him coming back to the club.
