Wingard is a dual All Australian who stood up in the big games for Port and was their best finals player in his time there.I’d have Hamling over Jones and Williams over Stephen Hill then.
B: Neville Jetta ~ Steven May ~ Michael Johnson
HB: Leon Davis ~ Joel Hamling ~ Lewis Jetta
M: Brad Hill ~ Tim Kelly ~ Shane Edwards
R: Paddy Ryder ~ Shaun Burgoyne ~ Zac Williams
HF: Cyril Rioli ~ Lance Franklin ~ Charlie Cameron
F: Eddie Betts ~ Adam Goodes ~ Michael Walters
I/C: Jarrod Harbrow ~ Chad Wingard ~ Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti ~ Daniel Wells
His season goal tallies at Port: 43, 43, 53, 38, 24, 22 (while averaging just under 20 possessions per game)
That puts him ahead of Charlie Cameron and Zac Williams (as much as I like both those players)
He has had a couple of forgettable seasons. Prior to that, many people rated him as a better footballer than Cyril Rioli (probably the only indigenous forward I ever tolerated being compared to Cyril and didn’t argue about it)
