His intercept game has improved. Made some blunders against the Dogs - needs to improve his disposal efficiency in the back half and contested posession wins. Marchy has him covered here but very harsh on Kempy... but needs to clean up that disposal in the back half 66% efficiency and having the ball 15-20 times per game is hurting us. Developing nicely imo.
Don't see the word 'stalled' as a huge criticism.
It's not meant that way.
It simply means that he is not playing much better, if at all better, than he was last year.
Now for a 23 year old you would expect a level of improvement.
There hasn't been that breakthrough...yet.
And one way to make it happen is to give him some opportunities elsewhere in the side.
Don't drop him, try another spot.
I actually rate Kemp.
I see in him the potential to play a number of positions.
Have a look at his draft profile and one of the features of it was his versatility...

Yet we seem to have determined he is a defender (maybe through necessity) and that's where he stays...
but the fact is he's now out of the side.
It will be interesting to see where and how he is used in the VFL.
