Hard to see Kemp getting a run as a defender again if Marchbank has another good week of VFL, hopefully that kills the experiment and Kemp goes back to playing in the position that saw him rising up the draft ratings.

Agree on Kemp....ideal sub, if there is such a thing...he's got a bit of flexibility. And Cottrell's last few weeks have been pretty good and definitely deserves a spot. If Dow misses out again and goes back to the VFL and plays another good one he'll be hard to keep out of the side for any longer.

Agree....our mids have been injury free and touch wood it remains that way but the odds are we will get a hammy or a calf sooner or later and Dow will get his chance. Cottrell has been busy as the sub and has earned his spot...

I really rate Stocker but I didn't expect him to walk straight back in.

Kemp's rating was largely based on his versatility. He was an intercept defender who was occasionally sent forward and spent some time in the midfield.  He seems most comfortable and effective playing in defence but, if necessary, could pinch hit as a lead up forward - not that he has done well in that role in the VFL.

Know what you mean Prof, but I reckon his teammates and the coach rate him for his tough approach and if fit he is close to be an automatic these days especially vs opposition who play a hard brand like the Swans.

He may not have done so if Williams hadn't done a fetlock.  With injuries and Williamson seemingly set for the wing, our medium/small defender stocks are not as flushed as they were.

Stocker's form in his first game back was patchy, and he created an opposition goal with a spoil when he should have stayed down, but his upside is significant and we need to get more games into him.  However, I think the same is true for Kemp and he misses out after finishing the game well last week.

As long as he finds some form, or else we risk that he'll just get frustrated and make mistakes.
