He played 100% TOG in quarters 1, 2 and 3.
He played only 54% TOG in the last.
I noted before that I saw him on the bench in the last when we needed something from him and vossy didn't try much with him when we needed it.
Now to me that shows either....
1. A severe lack of trust in Kemp to do what's required when it matters.
2. He got injured.
Either way, it's not good news for us and him.
We need a 196cm/100kg plus strong CHB who can take the load off Weitering as you, I, and a few others have discussed ad nauseam. Our defense rebounds well but doesnt defend so well and allows too many opposition marks and when you get spuds like Esava influencing games down forward its time to rethink what we are doing and admit its not working.
