Daniel Chick (born February 10, 1976) is a
professional Australian rules footballer who played for Hawthorn and the
Hawthorn career
Chick made his debut for Hawthorn in 1996, winning the Peter Crimmins Trophy in 2000. At Hawthorn Chick established himself as a tough and versatile half forward.
After the pain of chronic dislocation, Chick made headlines when he elected to have a finger amputated in 2002.[1]
After Chick's brother Justin died from an allergic reaction Chick felt unsatisfied at Hawthorn and expressed his intentions to
return to his home state.[1] Hawthorn traded
him to the
West Coast career
Chick returned to Perth as part of a trade deal to play with West Coast for 2003. He eventually became a versatile tagger, shutting down many opponents. However the 2003 season was crippled by AC joint injuries and eventual surgery.[1] 2004 and 2005 were better years where Chick became a key contributor. Season 2006 included many highlights for Chick including 5 goals against Essendon in round 8. Chick played a vital role in the 2006 AFL Grand Final win. During the the last quarter Chick smothered an attempted kick by Sydney's Ryan O'Keefe and via the collection, handball and shepherd set up a pivotal Adam Hunter goal. This piece of play was commentated as "one of the greatest one per-center efforts ever".[citation needed]
In September 2007, West Coast released a statement of their intent to delist Chick at the end of October 2007.[2]
Arrest
On October 16, 2007 Chick was arrested and questioned by the Western Australian Police in relation to drug possesion, simultaneously with the arrest of team mate and close friend Ben Cousins.[3][4]He was later released without charges being laid.[5]
