Just to be clear.
I'm not advocating Kemp anywhere else than where he's been playing...for the time being.
But I suspect in the years to come, as he develops, he'll play a number of different positions.

On a side note I see Liam Stocker has been dropped. Make of it what you will

15 games into a career is much too early to be settling on a position.
As this fellow gains experience and game time and develops further who knows what he could be...and where it could be.
I suspect it will depend a lot on our needs at the time.
He played as a key forward in many of his 28 VFL games. Perhaps they were trying to develop his forward craft too.
You're right about fitting in to our needs though Lods. If we do pick up a gun KPD, or Lewis Young returns to form, Brodie could play as a third tall defender or as a forward. However, his intercept marking and ability to break the lines is much better suited to a defensive role.

His form has been very poor for the last several games. Of course, Liam is another player that SOS was convinced would make a good midfielder.
Let's hope Liam cracks in and does well enough in the VFL to get his spot in the 22 back again.

Don't pigeonhole this bloke.
As Kruddler said after the last West Coast game.
Yep, like Jarrad Waite and Matthew Richardson spent some time on a wing for a bit of x-factor and marking ability.
Thats different to playing midfield.

Be interested where he gets played in the twos...defense , midfield...think he is better suited down back but needs to show more work rate when he doesnt have the ball.

That's not good. Not only will we miss Jack's footy smarts and forward craft but it must place a huge question mark over his ability to cope with the demands of AFL footy.
I hope it's just us being cautious.

Three games before getting injured, must be a record
