Jordan Ridley (born 20 October 1998) is a professional Australian rules footballer playing for the Geelong Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL). He previously played for the Essendon Football Club from 2017 to 2026. Ridley won the Crichton Medal in the shortened 2020 season and the Yiooken Medal in 2024.

AFL career

[edit | edit source]

During his draft year he played for Oakleigh Chargers in the TAC Cup and attended Box Hill High School. He previously played community football for East Burwood in the Eastern Football League.

He was selected by Essendon with their second selection and twenty-second overall in the 2016 national draft.[1] He made his senior debut for Essendon against Geelong in round nine of the 2018 season.

After managing just 9 games across his first 3 years with Essendon he enjoyed a breakthrough season in 2020. He played all 17 games of the shortened season earning selection in the All Australian squad and winning the Crichton Medal as Essendon’s Best and Fairest player. After just 26 senior games he became the third least experienced player in the clubs history to win the award.

Following the 2026 AFL season, where Essendon would go on to finish on the bottom of the ladder, Ridley sought a trade out of the club. He was later traded to Geelong in exchange for Jack Bowes, a 2027 first-round selection, and a 2028 second-round selection.
