He's a ****ing champ! Go Paddy!

Good young key position player. Will be interesting to see where he ends up playing. Hopefully in the ruck. Fingers crossed, he could be as good as Goodes.

cant be true that mathew knights cant find a spot in the side for pev we r not going that well and theirs blokes in this side that whouldnt get a game at melbourn letalone at essendon so comeon matty get real and start doing what you get paid to do

keep at patty you champ

Win A Flag!

Patrick Ryder is the next Superstar of the Afl, Go The Mighty Dons

An absolute gun. This bloke is still only a kid really and he's already shown great skill and poise in defence. Gonna fill Fletch's spot just fine..

He's our best player at the moment and one of the most consistent.

Emma! You tell this guy he is a future all star back liner and will make all-australian multiple times.. he is the next Stephen Silvagne and plays VERY similar to him. He will put anyone he plays on to shame! He should have been on Fevola. Mal Michael is out of form for the moment.

You would love to ride him you fag.

paddy ryder is going to be a superstar only player in the afl atm who can prob stop buddy franklin

will b a bomber for many years to come...hopefully stays down back as he would take over nicely from fletch and is a talent not seen for years!...the future of ESSENDON!

yes i agree my favorite too,could he be our next james hird??
