Ryder had been dropped, at age 41, from the side which had just toured England a few months previously. Bitterly disappointed, Ryder continued his domestic career. Bill Woodfull sportingly vacated the Victorian captaincy in Ryder's favour. Ryder's testimonial was played at the MCG 14-18 November 1930. The match, which ended in a draw, was interrupted by rain on the first day and washed out on the third day. The highest scorer was Bradman, 73 in the first innings. Attendance was 65, 290 and Ryder recieived 2,463 pounds. This was the last first-class appearance of Tommy Andrews and Arthur Mailey. The signatures comprise: AUSTRALIAN XI, Woodfull, Vic Richardson, Bradman, Fairfax, Kippax, a'Beckett, Jackson, McCabe, Wall, Ponsford, Oldfield, Grimmett; THE REST, Ryder, Mailey, Harris, Andrews, Allsop, Blackie, Alexander, Ironmonger, Hendry, Rigg, Ellis (whose name is also inscribed on the shoulder of the bat), Darling
