Perhaps he’ll take Harry’s spot on Saturday ?
Every VFL and AFL game he’s played for us has been as a KPF or KPD. Not one of his coaches at both levels has given him a run in the midfield (if I remember correctly, he played one game as a midfielder in under 18s). I suspect that says just a little about where Brodie will play for seasons to come.
I have no doubt that he could play as a midfielder, but not as well as he plays as a KPP, and not as well as our current crop of midfielders can play.
Could it be that they're developing a defensive side to his game as a starting point.
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.
