Port star now Hawthorn recruit Chad Wingard has lashed out at reports senior leaders at his former club had grown tired of the dynamic forward\u2019s presence at the club.<\/h3>\n

“I rang Ken to see if there was any truth to that and he told me that nothing had come from the club,\u201d Wingard has written in an article for aflplayers.com.au. \u201cThere was no truth to it, and that’s just how the media want to play things.\u201d<\/p>\n

“If you have seen the coverage in Adelaide, it has been a bunch of lies and a lack of understanding.<\/p>\n

“Just because a deal like this has gone through, it doesn’t mean they have to jump to conclusions and reach for the negative angle.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

"I felt like I was cheating on a girlfriend. It wasn\u2019t a great feeling."https:\/\/t.co\/b8zqWlkMbS<\/a>@chadwingard20<\/a> explains the painstaking moment he knew he had to explore his options, in an exclusive column. pic.twitter.com\/uDcngBZbMK<\/a><\/p>— AFL Players (@AFLPlayers) October 24, 2018<\/a><\/blockquote> \n
