Surely not :

Patrick Ryder could be brought back to the club where he started his career, with Essendon reportedly interested in securing the out of favour ruckman’s services.

According to The Age, the Bombers have expressed an interest in landing the 31-year-old.

Ryder is out of contract at the end of the season and has been offered a one-year deal from Port Adelaide, but the big man is keen to pen a longer deal.

Throughout the season the Power have promoted Scott Lycett and Pete Ladhams to the number one ruck mantle, with Ryder axed to the SANFL for five weeks in the middle of the year.

Essendon, conversely, has struggled in its ruck department in 2019.

With Tom Bellchambers succumbing to injury, Zac Clarke has been left to shoulder the load, while the uncapped but highly fancied Sam Draper has also sat out the season with an ACL injury.

Ryder left Essendon at the end of 2014 on the back of the supplements scandal that rocked the club and the AFL.
PAFC. Forever.

Sounds like a lot of BS to me.
Ryder and his family were filthy with us and rightfully so and vice versa.
I’d be staggered if he wanted to return and I’d be even more staggered if we allowed him to return. Even putting aside the off field stuff, the bloke is cooked and will want top dollars for a 2 year deal. Just a massive waste of a list spot

One wouldn't be stupid in chucking some coin on them at season's end for the 2020 flag.

We've smacked GWS and Essendon in the last two weeks and started to hit form at the right time. We've beaten Brisbane, Geelong and Richmond granted they were earlier in the year but lost to West Coast (R11 - 61pts) and Collingwood (R4 - 14pts & R14 - 9pts) but I'd be confident in our current form

Win this week and we most probably finish 7th.... ominous. Doing the predictor I came up with;
then GWS in Sydney week one of finals
WC in Perth week 2
Richmond at MCG week 3
Brisbane in GF

Away trips to GWS and West Coast and an MCG date with a Vic powerhouse club then a more fancied interstate team in the GF... it all lines up!!!

Print the T-shirts now...
