Ryder retires

[Banger9798]

Geary, Kent, Paddy, Hanna's retiring -- average age of our list must have dropped a bit

Big shoes to fill young Heath. You can do it!

I would prefer that in 2023 that we go with just Marshall as our No 1 ruck, and then play two key forwards (King and ......maybe Hayes).

A great positive thread for once.

May keep Campbell on the list for another year as insurance in case Marshall were to get injured

Absolutely

Inevitable I guess. His body has begun letting him down. A fantastic player over his entire career and played some great, great games for us during his three seasons with us. Hope we can keep him involved in the club in some way.

Unlikely....family in Adelaide??


Returned there a couple of times this year

Well that’s a shame. He’s been a champion player, who lifts those around him. I feel that had he played his entire career at St Kilda we’d have won more flags

I wonder if this influences Hill’s potential desire for a trade?

Tom did a few nice things today, but I'd be trying to pinch a young bloke with potential (the way we tried with Draper and Xerri).

Top shelf footy player. One of the best ruckmen in the comp. Feel slightly crest fallen to see him go. But was ever so glad he joined our club, our colours, our team and tribe. Was always quite jealous of those other two clubs he played for before us. And most grateful for the awesome drive he gave us at the end of his career. So long and best wishes to Paddy Ryder.
