Brodie Kemp (born 1 May 2001) is a professional Australian rules footballer playing for the Carlton Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).[1]

Kemp was selected by Carlton at No. 17 in the 2019 AFL draft, being drafted from the Bendigo Pioneers.[2] After multiple injuries he played 6 games across his first three seasons, before establishing himself in the backline during 2023, playing 17 games.[3][4]

Kemp played 21 games in 2024, and made a switch to the forward line late in the season. In his new role as second or third tall forward, he kicked a career-best five goals in round 3, 2025 against the Western Bulldogs,[5] before suffering a ruptured achilles tendon two weeks later which ended his 2025 season.[6]

In September 2025, Kemp signed a contract extension to the end of 2027.[7]
