On long-term talent our Rating reads 11, 26th of 32 of the 32 full-backs in the A-League. At 31 Kitto is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.5 reflects that trajectory.
3.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 12) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 11.4, Kitto carries the 26th-highest potential of the full-backs in the A-League of 32. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.28 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 22–27 (~1), then tapers with age. At 31, Kitto sits on 0.5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Kitto's projected Rating — 11.4 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
