Ryan was a defender, selected with Richmond's first pick and 11th overall in the 1994 National Draft.[2] He spent three years playing senior football at Richmond before again nominating for the draft and being selected by St Kilda at pick 43. In his first season with St Kilda he made 20 appearances, double his previous season's best, but he added just five more games in each of his next two seasons.[3]
