For whatever reason, Louis decided not to use Kemp and went for Jack Thomas instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phillipsr 2,057 Posted January 13, 2023 There must be a reason no one wanted him... maybe the attitude issue are true and no one can be bothered to put up with the baggage? Personally i think he has struggled since the likes of Brennan and Flint have jumped ahead of him.. a couple of years ago he was seen as the next big thing but both those named above and others have now gone ahead of him and i don't think he has handled that very well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think his talent is about on par with Brennan, Rowe, Thompsons but they are far more mentally resilient Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not really Dan's home 5.73 (6.64) vs away 4.37 (5.02) is reasonably close. Compare that to Joe at home 5.62 (6.64) vs away 1.94 (2.71) who did get a team spot. Sadly it's the likes of Kemp & Dan T doing too well that has cost them a team spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DJWolves 82 Posted February 24, 2023 On the occasional times Kemp made the gate last season he looked smooth and fast. But he didn’t battle for points anywhere near as much as Leon Flint and I’m much happier to have him in the team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJWolves 82 Posted February 24, 2023 Doyle and Emil makes Ipswich pretty strong in heats 13 and 15! Look forward to seeing them at Monmore. Peterborough look to have a terrible team but have room for a big signing. Their forum suggests it could be Freddie but surely not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
