He is 39 games into his AFL career and often has to play undersized due to our lack of height. He still is really a baby. While he has had an average 4-5 weeks he has had a good year and need more exposure at the elite level.
I don't have an issue with Kemp.
I have an issue with the manner and the way the MC use him.
He's hung out to dry on a hiding to nothing played on the gorillas and then is the first one dropped when it doesn't work.
We've dropped him for marchbank this year and in the prelim and I am a fan of marchbank but they are the same type of player, albeit kemp is more athletic. So why would you?
If we had a genuine CHB Kemp would be praised as one of the best intercept defenders in the game.
Instead he is a bloke who can't stop the best in the game who have a couple inches and 10kg over him.
Hardly seems fair.
