Okay it only took 2 days.

Durdin ahead of Kemp, must be something else going on

Need to see if Durdin is up to it, in case he's needed in 8 week's time.

If Marchbank was fit and in form I'd have him in my best 22.
But 57 games in six seasons
Only 15 in the last three.
It's around 1 game in 7 games out this season.
We just cant keep persevering.
It's a list spot we can't rely on.
This is a bit different because it's an illness, but wasn't it an illness last time.
He's obviously highly regarded, otherwise we wouldn't have kept supporting him through these multiple breaks.
But there has to come a time.

Durdin was named as an emergency, Kemp wasn't.
Durdin, at 199cm, will be a better match up on 203cm Teakle than 192cm Kemp (and 193cm Marchbank).

If height is the only requirement to be a good defender, then you would've picked Young.
But, height is not the be all and end all.
Personally, i'd have preferred Kemp, still, despite being undersized because without him up and about, we don't actually have an alternate CHB option. Which is a HUGE worry......and one i've flagged for years. We need to recruit a genuine KPD to pair with Weitering.
Hopefully Durdin has some kind of Jarrad Waite, Lance Whitnall, Liam Jones reversal of fortunes and turns into a genuine KPD out of nowhere. However, i'm not optimistic.

Bit of a worry, despite the roof being closed Marvel can still be a bit greasy in cold conditions, in fact if it's rained before they closed the roof some players claim it's more slippery than the MCG.
That was the basis of some calls earlier this season to always close the roof before the weekend.

I think Marchbank may be suffering from depression. Whenever he has played in the past and started to be the player people think he can be he has become injured and some of these injuries have been strange like Boyd landing on him this year. To me he has lost confidence and these illnesses may be symptomatic of his mental state.
