Jason Winderlich (born 10 October 1984) is a former professional Australian rules footballer who played for the Essendon Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).
Originally from Thorpdale, Victoria,[1] he was drafted in the first round of the 2002 AFL Draft from the Gippsland Power in the TAC Cup.
In June 2008, after playing 26 games in a season and a half, he underwent back surgery to repair a prolapsed disc, missing the rest of the year.[2] He returned the following season to have one of his best seasons,[1] earning 10 Brownlow Medal votes to be the equal leader for Essendon and finishing fifth in the club's best and fairest award.[3]
In round 4, 2011 Winderlich suffered a serious ACL injury which ended his 2011 season.
In August 2014, Winderlich announced he would retire at seasons end; however, after the end of the Essendon's finals campaign, it was publicly revealed that he was contemplating playing on. After reports he had chosen to continue his career at Richmond,[4] Winderlich announced in October that he would be staying with Essendon to continue his career.[5] He managed only one match for 2015 due to a back injury, and he announced his proper retirement in September.[6]
