I want what ya'll are smoking. He's the weakest link in our forward line. He's serviceable when defending by a mile at the moment. I wonder who would come knocking if we put him up for trade. Donuts I reckon.

Some fans once they like a player prefer to keep doubling down then admit they may have got it wrong. i thought SPS was the next andrew mccloed and kept seeing all the positives and glossing over the negatives until i conceded i got it wrong but i gave him
a heap more time then i usually would because i thought i saw something with him.

Kemp is no gunston and couldnt be further from him. Gunston even in his early days was a good user and decision maker. He took his opportunites. Kemp appears to be another mentally fragile player and generally those players never become consistent top level performers.

I think you’ll find most forwards will slim down to increase their mobility, except Fraser Gehrig
Let’s go BIG !

Kemp just needs continuity.  A ruptured achilles is no joke.  His Kicking is likely suffering as a result.  He did it on his preferred side.

Likely just needs to continue doing what he is doing.   Early in the year he was generally better, but he has lost a bit of depth in it, indicating that fatigue is likely more of an issue.

Fraser Gehrig
For a bloke his size, Gehrig had chicken legs.

I've said more than once McKay would be a great modern Gehrig, I've never understood why more club's don't turn mobile talls into wingmen before they become fulltime KPFs.

Mckay is scared of his own shadow. Gehrig was a absolute brute who if you got in his way when on the lead he would send you into the 4th row.

Our man hasnt got an aggressive bone in his body.

I think you mistake the late career Gehrig with the early career wingman.

Early Gehrig was more like Acres, later he was closer to Plugger.

Would Gehrig have developed the way he did without the time on the wing?
