    Have said it a few times - Kemp (192cm) should be modelling his impact on that of Jake Waterman's 2024 season at West Coast where he kicked 53.23 in 20 games of football and made All Australian. Waterman (191cm), like Kemp was coming back from a season ending injury (illness) the year prior...

    I think Kemp and in particular HOK are seriously important in that we need to have a forward line mix that keeps the oppo defence accountable. Having three dangerous marking forwards (thus providing a less predictable mode of F50 entry) just makes it a little more difficult for the Harris...

    It's a good observation. I do think however he has improved a lot in this area over the last 12 months. Crazy to think he's only just 21. I really like him and think he's going to be a great foil for Harry. I have him in my best 23.

    Am I the only that thought he had developed into a dangerous medium/small forward and brilliant at delivering the ball inside 50. Don’t understand why we’re moving him back…again. Zac is an underrated talent. Reckon too many people judge him harshly simply because of his contract.

    Certainly agree with you for the most part there particularly about being respectful. I would like to see stronger player critiquing but ultimately with any opinion making or criticism has to come with a level of rationality and reasoning. Most semi-sophisticated people can see through what's...

    So you're saying you prefer open ended discussions with next to no real opinion over someone who is prepared to have a strong view? fwiw, I think Paul is great and tells it how he sees it. I quite like all the content creators - I think they each have their own unique strengths but prefer the...

    Tend to agree. I think we'll miss the TDK the most - will make us less dynamic around stoppage but we have reason to be optimistic. Whilst I would have preferred to have retained the big three that departed, ultimately the additions (new players and those returning from the side-lines) I think...

    I hope they're brave enough to have a look at him in the Geelong match on Feb 25

    He's worth more than that. Have heard West Coast (of all teams!) have $10m / 7 years for him.

    Surely, if the team has finals aspiration we need players that have a few more weapons in their kit bag than just lukewarm pressure… If this is the reason he’s in the opening round 23 we would have hardly moved forward in required improvement.

    Well, there goes all these open training sessions we’ve been asking for… Club will just shut it down now. 😏

    Nope. The whole ‘Fogarty is good because he applies so much pressure’ is an absolute myth. 1, he ranks #162 in the league for pressure acts per game. In fact there is eight Carlton players that average more. 2, he’s not in the top five at Carlton for tackles. Less than 4 a game. 3, 0.5 goals...

    If Fogarty lines up in opening round after the emergence of Evans, Moir & inclusions of Ainsworth, Hayward etc I’d be staggered (and frustrated). He’s not good enough. VFL standard. Can’t fathom the amount of undeserved senior games he was gifted last year where he regularly underperformed.

    Who’s writing him off?! Just having a frank debate as to his ability to impact and what position he might be best suited to. I think everyone is convinced of his talent.

    I fear he’s going to simply be another Corey Durdin. Talented and more than capable at the level but just doesn’t impact at anywhere near the rate their talent justifies. Is that just personal workrate / willingness OR yet another small/medium forward not played to their strengths under...
