AFL Women's career.
Hatchard was drafted by Adelaide with their eleventh selection and eighty-seventh overall in the 2016 AFL Women's draft. She made her debut in the thirty-six point win against at Thebarton Oval in the opening round of the 2017 season. She missed the round four match against at Fremantle Oval when she was omitted from the side. She returned the next week for the three point loss to at Norwood Oval. She was a part of Adelaide's premiership side which defeated by six points at Metricon Stadium in the AFL Women's Grand Final. She missed one match during the season to finish with seven matches in her debut season.
Adelaide signed Hatchard for the 2018 season during the trade period in May 2017. She received a nomination for the Rising Star award in Adelaide's round 7 loss to .
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. Overcoming concussion concerns ahead of a thumping 66-point preliminary final victory against Geelong, 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. Her season was punctuated with a maiden All-Australian selection and a re-commitment to Adelaide by signing a two-year contract during the trade period.
