Trent Dennis-Lane


He had a quietish start to the game with 1 kick, 1 mark 1 goal (set shot 35-40m out, 45 degree angle after a mark on the lead – receiving great service from the deliverer) and 2-3 tackles in the opening term.

He was busier in the 2nd with 3 possessions, 2 goals (the first from swooping on a loose boucing ball 25-30m out of goal and snapped around his body, the 2nd a resuly of receiving a HB from Smith 30m out slipping out of his opponents tackle and steadying to snap the goal), 1 behind (collecting a loose ball from 60m out in space, ran to 45-50m and kicked slightly across the face under no prerssure), as well as continuing to provide good defensive pressure.

His third quarter was clearly his best and most prolific kicking 4 goals (1st after he overran a bouncing ball not collecting it cleanly and was shirtfronted by Jones, then showed great recovery to get back up and collect the spill from a tackle 30m out cleanly and run into slot through an easy goal from close range, the second was put through a set shot from 30m no significant angle after a sliding mark on the lead in front, the third was also from a set shot straight in front resulting from a chest mark dropping back and reading the flight better than his opponent after a high kick to the goal square, and the fourth was from another set shot from 20m no great angle after a push in the back). NOTE: the 3rd goal in the quarter (6th overall) isn’t in the video footage.

He had 2 further possessions in the last quarter, didn’t kick any goals, but assisted one after diving for a low mark which bounced just in front and showing excellent recovery again to get back up on his feet, gather the ball with one hand , sidestep a player and weight a short RF pass to Mapleston at CHF. A poor kickout gave him an opportunity to score his 8th goal, after he was in a better position to take the mark than his opponent , however he put the resultant set kick out on the full after taking a difficult shot from 50-55m out 45-60 degree angle.

He showed a real appetite for goals and nous around the goalmouth, the ability to kick goals from mark/set shots and opportunistic crumbing situations, good lateral movement, agility and evasiveness, clean hands, excellent footy smarts to read the play before and outthink his opponent consistently, good defensive work ethic to chase and apply pressure and excellent recovery ability.
He’s quite narrow shouldered and thin through the body, he doesn’t seem genuinely explosive - his pace is OK-decent without standing out and I’m unsure about his vertical leap, but it didn’t stand out particularly.

Overall it was an excellent return for a small forward, to kick a massive 7 goals, making the very most of the opportunities he got (12 disposals, 10 of them resulting in goal scoring opportunites, 7 goals, 1 behind, 1OOF and 1 goal assist), while also providing pressure on the oppositions defensive ball carriers too.

He’s been looked at in the pasts as a colts player and while he’s no guarantee at 19, good, consistent form over the course of this season could be well timed with a reduced draft pool this year and 2 WA sides in need of small crumbing forwards.
