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. Reported he had chosen to continue his career at Richmond, Winderlich announced in October that he would be staying with Essendon to continue his career.
