Someone who can be a handful for the Hugh Greenwood types we play against, they get it too easy against Cripps because Crippa can't escape them and also they can run off Cripps the other way, they won't be able to do that with Kemp.
I appreciate the scenario changes if Cripps, Kennedy, Cerra, Hewett, Walsh and the rucks are up and about, but they aren't all in a good form at the moment, and it's basically been Cripps and Doc holding the midfield together.
