[KoopKicka]

Chad Wingard- Port Adelaide Power

Position: MID with an outside chance of FWD as well.

Price: 228,500

2011 Games: NA

2012 Games: 19

2011 Avergae: NA

2012 Average: 48.4

2012 Tons: 0

Summary: Wingard is a silky-smooth midfielder who uses the ball very well, took an eternity for him to hit his straps, which frustrated coaches like me who started with him, but in the last 3 games started to show us what we all knew he could do, having a last 3 game average of 74. Will only improve in an improving Port midfield, many people (including myself) are predicting he will nab a brownlow before he retires.

Verdict: Between him and Embley for my 5th spot, but am leaning towards Chad. :) But a lock if M/F

Predicted Average: 80-85

If a FWD, I'll be considering. Not as a mid though :)

Good writeup buddy! Would be a pretty crazy average up there??

[KoopKicka]

More than certainly capable of it ;) He didnt get taken top 10 for no reason! :P

[Adamant]

Nice write-up KK  :)
Wingard definitely on my watchlist...would be a bargain at that price if he could average 80+

[Ricochet]

I've seen a bit of him and he's an impressive kid, will be a good player. Not for me at this stage though.

Harsh to call him silly Koop

Summary: Wingard is a sily-smooth midfielder

:P

Definite lock if he is a M/F but at that price definitely worth thinking about, even if just for a cash cow
