Another off season begins.

 

PORT Adelaide ruckman Paddy Ryder has been charged with assault following an incident outside an Adelaide nightclub.

The Power released a statement confirming the All Australian was involved in an incident with his younger brother and cousin at a club in Hindley Street on Sunday morning.

He has also been charged with hindering police.

"Ryder met with club officials this morning to express his disappointment and regret for involving himself in an incident which primarily concerned his brother," a Port Adelaide statement said.

Ryder was released on bail and will appear in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on November 15.

    "Ryder, 29, was arrested by police, who allege he assaulted officers and hindered them making an arrest".

    On the face of it doesn't sound good.

    Let's hope our lot stay out of strife this off season.

    A few guys from my footy club saw the incident. Said it didn't look good for Ryder at all.

    He could claim that he was under the influence of a side effect from the The whatever it took campaign and has no personal recollection or understanding of the incident.

    Perhaps the respected issuer of the Norm Smith medal could provide some assistance with records that supplements produce such effects

    But does he want to win a Premiership or just be an AFL player?

    Depending on the answer to the above question, Uncle Kosh may save him.

    Sorry - I was just mucking around.

    Given Watts is the number one whipping boy here, I thought someone might link him to the smoke here ...

    A Port player got arrested, culture breads culture I guess!

    Most media have said that Ryder was protecting his brother/defending himself. But for an AFL player to be on Hindley St at 1am is poor form, even in off season.

    Surely players can go wherever they want at whatever time they want in the offseason. It is their holidays.

    I have never heard of, or been to Hindley Street, but if it is bad as you hint perhaps the police should worry about it.

    2 sides of the coin. Its off season and he is allowed to enjoy himself.

    Flipside: A professional would never be in the situtation where assualting anyone, let alone a cop, at 1am outside a nightclub is a possibility.

    Life is not that cut and dried though is it

    Sh!t happens when we least expect it and if somebody started attacking my brother unprovoked i would lose my collective marbles to. 

    His professional is totally irrelevent

    Absolutely. If he was out at a park or a resturaunt etc - no issues at all. But being outside a nightclub at 1am, where you KNOW there is going to be people that are intoxicated just wanting to have a go is asking for trouble. Protecting a family member is one thing, assualting a cop is another.

     

    That being said, until he is actually sentenced its all hearsay.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
