I'm really happy we've signed Kemp on for another 2 years, great news!

However the 4 resignings today have me concerned at how quickly we have been offering players new contracts after showing a little bit of form. What's most worrying is the length of those contracts with most feeling longer than what they should be and I'm genuinely surprised and left scratching my head at some of our decisions from over the past 18 months in this space.

For example we have 9 people currently on our rookie list and now 7 of the 9 have contracts for 2024 with the exception of Ed Curnow and Sam Durdin

. That's not leaving much flexibility for next year especially if some of the injury prone players are pushed to a rookie list.

Of recent contract extensions we have LOB with a contract for next year despite barely playing this year when perhaps a 1 year contract extension may have been more warranted last year rather than 2 years. Fisher still has 2 more years on his contract which seems like we offered him too many given he's not getting a game. Dow had an extra year for this year which was also too long. Pitto got 4 years just a few months back yet struggles with injury every year. Young got 3 years in March yet has been in and out of the team. All of these players have been somewhat fringe players this year.

Anyone else think we're a bit too quick in this space and a bit too generous with years?

This is Brodie’s player thread.

Stay on topic.


Thanks all.

Thank you BK

Found his spot as a 3rd defender, but does anyone else think he’ll end up a midfielder?

Had 2 seasons virtually wiped with injury and now he’s fit he’s showing how much of a superb athlete he is.

Loved the part where they were talking about Ange and the Spurs. Kempy is a huge Spurs fan and Ange is an absolute Carlton nuffie.

I have zero doubt they'll cross paths sometime soon

I think he takes the second key forward and McGovern is 3rd.

Giving back to the Club: Re-signed Kemp on repaying Blues' faith

While Carlton showed its faith in Brodie Kemp, the defender wanted to do the same.

[BlueJet]

Rapt with this re-signing.
He's been brought along quite slowly but we're now starting to see why he was so highly rated as a junior footballer.

SOS was right on this chap.

So was Andrew Walker

So was Jabba73!

Kemp if he is still available. Almost big enough for key position, showed enough playing in the midfield.

Can never have enough big solid mids who can play in other positions.

Good kid from a good family too.

Been on Kemp all year, great kid from a great family.

Over the ******* moon with this pick, can’t wait to see what he can do.

Jabba knows his stuff

Especially when it comes to Echuca footballers, snot blocks and real-life Brady bunches!

Kemp paid the club back handsomely today with an awesome performance.

I love how he goes about it. Athletic. Jumps as high as anyone. His rebound is immense.

No longer a fringe player. Absolutely locked in to our best 22 for the next decade

Not just because he wears number 17 - but he does have a bit of the Brent Crosswell about him.

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Was absolutely reamed by the umpires too and still performed admirably. Great challenge for a young kid when Razor Ray is actively trying to get a team back in the game through ur direct opponent. Wonderful player.

From Clarke Kemp …

To Superman.

What a turn around.

Not long ago all I could see was Clarke.

Now he’s just Super.

 

[Blue1980]

He’s been fantastic from probably the Melbourne game onwards.

Loving his work, and we definitely have found one in Kempy.

 

[Lace_Out]

Showing some good signs, good levels of intensity as well.. big tick there.

My only concern with him is his kicking, below average and a very flawed technique.

Plays tall, not daunted in any contest, got wheels, doesn’t stop. , young enough to go another level easily, salivating at a midfield rotation or three.

 

[teknodeejay]

Okay, now do De Koning.

If he stays fit he’s for as long as the season goes for.

Next season is a trickier thing to predict however.
