Lienert is perfect depth. In Woodcock I see glimmers of a top shelf player. Hope he gets the chance and works on that rubber neck of his.
 
I read both stories on Woodcock on the club's website and I can't tell if he has been signed up as a rookie or added back to the main list.

Tredders on 9 news saying Lienert signing on despite the pressure of Port bringing in defenders Aliir Aliir and Lachie Jones. :D

With reduced lists he wasn't likely to be more than fringe anywhere else. Might as well stay where he is. I'm happy for some tall-ish defensive depth. Woodcock will get more games, as I doubt Fantasia will be fit all year. 1 year for both is sensible list management.

Woodcock is my faith. But i'm not holding hopes. Lienert is lost now we have Alir.

I have visions of Alir a defender we haven't quite seen at our club.

I don't get the joke, am I missing something? I think Tredders is right and Leinert will only be a depth player.

Not convinced on this at all...

We generally use 7 defenders for game day:

1. TJ
2. McKenzie
3. Cluz
4. DBJ
5. Aliir
6. Hammer
7. Houston/Burton (as it's likely at least one of these guys plays mid/wing).

So the depth after that has: Jones, Bergman (who is a fair unknown as a defender), Garner, Lienert, Bonner

He will probably get his shot with 2 injuries or form concerns. All he then has to do is grab his opportunity like McKenzie did this year.

Worst case scenario he's probably one of the best break glass depth defenders in the AFL.
