Bio
Drafted by Port Adelaide with pick six in the 2011 National Draft, Chad Wingard arrived from Sturt as a highly touted junior and quickly justified the hype. He established himself as one of the competition’s most electrifying small forwards, earning dual All-Australian selection and winning the John Cahill Medal in 2013 at just 20 years of age. A mercurial left-footer known for his spectacular high marking and ability to manufacture goals from nothing, Wingard became the face of the Power’s resurgence under Ken Hinkley, often rotating through the midfield to inject speed and class.
Following the 2018 season, Wingard requested a trade to Hawthorn in a high-profile move that saw Ryan Burton head the other way. His tenure at Waverley Park was frequently interrupted by persistent soft-tissue injuries which prevented him from consistently recapturing his absolute peak form, though he remained a dangerous prospect whenever fit. Despite transitioning into a deeper midfield role at times and showing flashes of his elite decision-making, a ruptured Achilles in 2023 proved a significant hurdle late in his career. He eventually retired at the conclusion of the 2024 season, finishing with exactly 300 career goals and a reputation as one of the modern era's most naturally gifted playmakers.
