Who is the better player?
Cyril.
Who would I pick going forward?
The Chad. I rate him above just about every young gun in the comp (Higher than Cotchin, Dangerfield, Fyfe, Heppell etc).
I might be a little bit mental, but I just see something really special about Wingard. I reckon he will become Port's AFL era GOAT. I liked how the commentators on Saturday were saying that there was no easy comparison for Wingard, he's just his own player.

The Chad is already better.
If not for his body - Rioli easily. Has the ability to completely turn a game from anywhere on the ground, more capable all round and yet a fantastic team player. Love watching that tackling ability.
Wingard is a flashy player, but he constantly looks like and does cry whenever he gets pushed around, not a good look.
Pragmatically though, would probably pick Wingard going forward. Younger and seems to be more durable.

Although I agree that Rioli IS the better player and I would take Wingard, That's a huge call.
Remember that Rioli is 4 years older than Wingard, and had the benefit of playing his whole career in a very strong team.
Wingard is in his third year, the first of which was in a poorly performing team.
Wingard has the bigger tank, and I reckon his bag of tricks is just as good as Rioli's. Add in the consistency and durability and I'd say Wingard has him covered.

Wingard way more consistent and is fundamental to Port's current success, Rioli on the other hand is kind of the icing on the cake on top of a very solid Hawthorn side
Both can have special days but Wingard has his days much more often.

I agree with most of that but Rioli has more talent. He's an absolute freak with the ball in hand.

Chad is younger and has arguably already achieved more on an individual level.
Wouldn't say he has a way to go at all.
Rioli's output does not match his talent.Wingard has Rioli comfortably covered on any measure you could make.

Rioli is an icing on cake player. Wingard is the cake and the icing.
