Across 16 appearances as a replacement, Woodward has built a profile defined by his defensive contribution, averaging close to four tackles per outing across Champions Cup and Premiership rugby. His carry numbers are modest but consistent with an impact role, and his best performances show he can push well beyond those averages when called upon, peaking at nine tackles and six carries in a single game. Over 561 minutes he has demonstrated the kind of steady, repeatable output that characterises a trusted bench option.
