Yes, for a certain type of player. Kemp could play on a wider variety of players and do better on some players compared to marchbank.
If your contention is true and he was brought in for a specific player, fair enough....but with no exposed match form to go by, I wouldn't have risked it.
I can't help but think there is something we don't know about with Kemp. He seems to be first one dropped and it can't be just about form.
I think you’re correct about him being the first dropped, however I’ve no idea why…
Got quite a few on the team already. Considering we do have some blokes who would be getting a game of fit, you might have heard of them... Sam Walsh Sam Docherty Jack Martin
Oh and next year we'll have 2 camporeales to add to Billy Wilson, jaxon binns and an injured Matt Carroll. I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple as well.
Kinda my point… Though waiting for who gets booted…
How many young mids do you want in the 2’s and though I’m reluctant to ask, who should be gone (mid season mind you…) to create room for these potential Brownlow medalists ? Asking for a friend…
He does a few little things that show his aptitude as a player. For me the important hole he fills is a leadership one for the younger small forwards. Durdin and motlop might learn a bit off him. It's intangible. We'll see how he goes, but im not writing him off yet.
Noticed him doing all the talking in the forwards huddle a few times, so l think he’s there for more than “just” possessions.
Problem with Young playing alongside Wieters is that we lose run and creativity big time. Young’s best is dour, do you really want to drop McGovern or Kemp ? In modern football EVERYONE must be willing and able to create and run one failure and the whole team starts to flounder.
Yeah, if Young was our main man you’d be nervous but he’s designed to be a stand in or accomplice for Weiters, he’s doing ok in Weiters absence. Will he hold his place when Weiters is fit…?
