Adelaide signed Hatchard for the 2018 season during the trade period in May 2017.[8] She received a nomination for the Rising Star award in Adelaide's round 7 loss to Collingwood.[9]
Hatchard enjoyed a breakout year in 2019, showing an increased ability to compete in the midfield largely as a result of improved fitness. She attributed this development to a change in diet, specifically cutting down on fast food.[10] Overcoming concussion concerns ahead of a thumping 66-point preliminary final victory against Geelong,[11][12] she went on to play all nine games culminating in a second premiership with the Crows in three years. Gathering 24 disposals and kicking one goal on the day, Hatchard was recognised as a key performer in her club's 45-point grand final triumph over Carlton, placing second with just one vote less than team mate Erin Phillips in the award for best on ground.[13][14] Her season was punctuated with a maiden All-Australian selection[15] and a re-commitment to Adelaide by signing a two-year contract during the trade period.[16]
The position of coach in the AFL Women's All-Australian team is traditionally awarded to the coach of the premiership-winning team; as no premiership was awarded in 2020, the coach position was not awarded.
