Looking at the deficincies of the lockdown small defender, my mind keeps returning to Greenwood. I think that while he could be utilised well still in the midfield, now that Cunnington is getting used to the pace of the game more and more, we have the luxury of using someone like Greenwood in a more defensive role. I believe that he is probably best used as a shutdown player, the only problem is that Scott will not play a pure tagger in the middle. Greenwood is possibly surplus to our midfield needs with a full list.
Ziebell and Cunnington with Wells, Swallow and Bastinac is a well balanced brigade of guys who can win the ball and use it well.
Greenwood is tough enough, fit enough, big enough and fast enough to shut down the small types that could get away from us now that Brady has retired. He is also pretty smart and while he may not use it incredibly well, he usually moves the ball forward with ease.
