Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Infobox AFL biography Albert Edward Ryan (3 June 1880 – 29 October 1952)[1] was an Australian rules footballer who played for Essendon in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Ryan was an established player at West Melbourne in the Victorian Football Association (VFA) before he came to the VFL. He had finished joint first in the VFA's goal-kicking in 1903 with 44 goals and again in 1904 when he kicked 51 goals. On each occasion he was the joint winner with Richmond's Jack Hutchinson. Ryan was then a fixture in their 1906 premiership. His season at Essendon consisted of 17 matches and although they made the Grand Final that year, Ryan was not picked at all during the finals campaign.

Ryan led Australian rules football for many years, until 1952 when he suffered a stroke in the bath and was found by his wife in the early hours of the morning. He was buried at St Patrick's Cathedral, Melbourne, on 4 November 1952.
