Bio
Recruited from Queensland, Samson Ryan arrived at Punt Road as a developing tall timber project with a background in cricket. A product of the Brisbane Lions Academy, the 206cm ruck-forward was selected by the Tigers with pick 40 in the 2020 National Draft but faced a steep learning curve, famously failing to register a statistic in his wet-weather debut against St Kilda. Throughout his time at Richmond, Ryan operated primarily as a depth option, spending significant time developing his craft in the VFL while serving as an understudy to premiership co-captain Toby Nankervis. Despite showing promise with his contested marking and ability to hit the scoreboard as a resting forward, he struggled to cement a permanent spot in the senior side, often utilised as a structural gap-filler rather than a first-choice ruckman.
