Not really having a go, but it annoys me that Wingard doesn't really get his due. He has developed this rep as being a downhill skier, but he does so much more than kick goals. All you have to do is go to AFL.com and look at the top goal kickers, and what else they contribute. He is miles ahead of any other small forward. He was heavily criticised during that 7 week run of losses last year, when he had a lean run. The thing was, he played midfield once and got 30 touches, played well and kick goals in one, and got knocked out before half time in another, but all we heard was 'Wingard has done nothing for 7 weeks'. Pretty much the same thing happened this year when he was low on goals at the start of the year, but had played a bit in the midfield and had given off heaps of goals unselfishly(was BOG in the 1st quarter when Port tore Hawthorn a new one). It just smacks of people not watching the games, not checking the stats, and then looking at the goal tally and thinking they know something. He would be hands down the best small forward of the last 3 years (his 2nd-4th seasons) which is pretty spectacular for a 21 year old and yet people were still saying about 3 weeks ago when he was starting to turn up in AA calculations that he was average and inconsistent.
