[edit] Career

Debuting in 2000, Chapman was recruited to the Geelong Football Club originating from Northern Saints Football Club in the EDFL, where he has made a name for himself as one of the most dangerous small forwards in the AFL. In late 2005 he suffered a setback with a hamstring injury and missed the finals series. In 2006, Chapman was the proud recipient of the Carji Greeves Medal, polling 462 votes, ahead of Jimmy Bartel (383) and Gary Ablett, Jr. (371). Chapman has been a member of Geelong's premiership teams in 2007 and 2009, winning the Norm Smith Medal in the 2009 Grand Final.
