Kyneton coach Paul Chapman has bolstered his side's key defensive stocks by signing experienced key defender Mason Crozier.
Mason Crozier, the brother of Western Bulldogs defender Hayden Crozier, arrives at the Kyneton Showgrounds with more than 150 senior games experience in the Eastern Football League and Southern Football League.

Crozier played with Rowville in the Eastern Fl where he was part of the 2017 inter-league squad.
Most recently he played for Port Melbourne Colts in the Southern league.
Crozier's arrival eases the pressure on Tigers' number one key defender Harrison Huntley and gives Chapman more options with his talls, particularly the versatile Jordan Mangan, who can play in the ruck or a key position post.
It's been a fruitful off-season for the Tigers.
In October the club announced the signings of siblings Adam and Dean Bartrop from Essendon District Football League club Tullamarine.
Adam Bartrop plays across half-back, while Dean, who won Tullamarine's best and fairest award in 2019, plays in the midfield.
With the core of the Tigers' 2021 group re-signing, 2022 is shaping as a season where Kyneton can challenge for a top-five position.
The Tigers open their 2022 campaign against Castlemaine at Camp Reserve.
The club's first home game of the year is against under lights on Good Friday.
