Matthew Ryan (born 15 September 1969) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer who played most of his career with the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs (1990 to 1998). Usually playing at centre, fullback, or on the wing, Ryan was a member of Canterbury's 1994 Grand Final-losing side as a reserve. The following season however, he and Canterbury-Bankstown won the 1995 ARL premiership grand final.
His brother, Mark Ryan, also played for the Canterbury club.[2]
In the 1997 Super League season Ryan was selected to represent New South Wales on three occasions in the Super League Tri-series, scoring a try. That year he was also the Telstra premiership's leading try-scorer. Ryan later left Canterbury to play in the 1999 NRL season for the North Queensland Cowboys. Ryan was not selected to play in the 1998 Grand Final, which the Bulldogs lost to the Brisbane Broncos.
