Traded Paddy Ryder [traded to St Kilda with Dougal Howard]

[dumdum]

now that Goldy has re-signed with North, an he'll be what 33 or 34 by the time he'll retire, i kinda cant see why the Dons shouldnt entertain the idea of getting Ryder back at his age.

Paddy back? Power ruckman meets with Bombers

Hope we get him back Draper will still be recovering from his acl Zac Clarke is a potato.

best case scenario a pick upgrade from say a 3rd rounder to a 2nd. most probably tho a throw away pick.

Pick 55 would get it done

Please, please Bombers sign him up rather that the Saints.

Rather a half cooked Ryder than Bellchambers and Clarke.

Only need Ryder for a year or two until Draper is over his acl.

 

[Vindicater]

No thanks.

We still have too many left from the Saga era. Why would we bring one back?

Don't think Ryder wanted to leave it was his wife that was pushing him to go iirc it was rumoured that she threatened to divorce him if he stayed.

Nah. If that was it port might as well dfa him, which they wouldn’t. He’s a wanted player.

Due to port having 4 4th rounders and mead as f/s covered by those picks there’s zero use in another pick between 30-70 this year.

 

[Mikevk123]

Hope we get him for peanuts

 

[Great8]

Whately reckons it’s down to us or the Saints only. He believes the Saints have a bigger offer on the table but he would prefer Essendon if we can meet him half way on the price difference

I'd tell him we'll match Saints offer, get him to announce he's then nominating us, then refuse to trade for him - hopefully Saints pick up another ruckman in the meantime.

 

[dumdum]

dunno why you'd want Ryder, he was never known to be a Goal Kicker

Yeah, and if you really wanted to get back at him you could inject him with some mystery drugs and cost him a year of his career. That'd show him.

 

[King_Tredrea]

Pretty poor of Ryder to even consider Essendon.

That seems counter-productive. And not our style.

To be fair he thought he was going to a well run club after Essendon, now he's realised his mistake.

I don’t disagree...

 

[dumdum]

i'll be surprised if Paddy's wife even lets him come back to Essendon

Will she threaten him with divorce him again haha

 

[dumdum]

anythings possible.

Imo if Ryder wants to go back to Essendon then his wife should support that decision. Club staff who were involved with the saga are no longer there it's a different club to the one when Ryder left.

true, but some dont get over it that easily like his wife may not. Paddy seems like he has . question is, has his wife move past it ?
