It’s a yes from me, darlin’
I loved Chad and was somewhat heartbroken to see him go. But i'm over it now. He can go to the crows for all i care. We squeezed the lemon dry of all the high quality football he'll ever play.

I’ve anticipated he’d return to port the day he left. I’d love to have him back

Shame on you......
That should give everyone pause before getting too hyped about Wingard.
It's one thing to get kicked out of a club for lacking professionalism. It's another to behave exactly the same way at your next club.
Worth a late second to late third depending on his salary and how much we need picks or points in a given year.

Absolutely, he'd be in our best 22 and we're in a flag window so you get him on the list.
He's lost his explosiveness to play forward in the way that made him the most electrifying player in the comp, but he's a very good midfielder and you can never really have enough of those.
Zero room for sentiment in footy decisions though. It'd have to be a deal that suits us and I can't really see Hawthorn being interested unless Chad pushes for a move home.

Hong-Kong Phooey
Cancelled
Sure why not on a two year deal. He'd come back with a point to prove. I'd trade him for a Leinert or MacKenzie type surplus player.
Yeah bring him back and sack Hinkley. 
If you put your emotions aside, at his age he could still go another 3 years, coming "home" may give that spark back that left him before he left us. WE are in the best spot to bargain should Chad wish to trade back to his club of choice if its us.
For me there are many good memories of Chad playing at Port for him not to come back. Similar to Gary Abblet Jnr coming back to Geelong, however Gary gave them Premierships, whereas Chad gave us great footy moments which are not on the same level, but still both club supporters loved them at the time and will love them back.
I was shattered when he left, but I am also excited that he may be back..... perhaps to give us some more magic moments in a Premiership side.

Like to see Chad at the 36s.
At Port currently on his statistics playing playing for the Hawks he’s doing just enough to have you interested at the right price. Hawks are a shocking side a present and a player like Chad isn't going to look anything special but he looks to be working hard on paper (don’t watch the Hawks does anyone?)and I like that he's still gaining 340 metres plus a game.

For a serious post on this....
If he is free at the right price and we think he would benefit the list at that point then maybe we get him back. But shouldn't be prioritised over any other player in the AFL that might be available.
End of the day last season we could have gone out and tried to bring players home etc but instead we saw AA at Sydney and made a play for him even though it seemed a long shot because he was the right guy for our side, and he's so far been recruit of the year.

I’ll make tears from your Wines.
We asked him and Toumpas to come back last year, they are still 'on their way'.

I’ve always thought once he left for hawthorn that eventually he would end up playing for Adelaide, I just can’t see him coming back to port, especially with those who got rid of him still here,
he looks like he’s not enjoying his footy in melb.
id take him in a heart beat, if you could get him right what a recruit he would be.
