Of course he should if his salary matches his output/age and his body allows it.
If there are offers elsewhere and he has trade value - that’s a deeper discussion.
You also need to consider what his salary being free up would allow us to nibble at.
Frampton will never be and AFL ruck - Lladhams is showing signs and I agree Hayes is potentially the pick of the lot.
Are we comfortable next year going into a game with no Ryder or Lycett if we get rid of Ryder and Lycett gets injured ?
Personally Ryder on a reduced contract and played on merit with an eye to blooding for the future seems a sound idea.
What happens for instance if Ladhams duds it up at afl level - which is possible.
