Hopefully puts pen to paper soon.. West coasts lack of small forwards means they'll surely be inquiring about him!

Surely he is misquoted in this article? What can he mean?

"I’m out of contract so there’s no pressure on me to perform or anything like that..."

Might not be misquoted but he might've misspoke. Not quite sure what he was getting at though, might not be a wordsmith! Sounds like he's pretty chilled about it and he's more than likely to remain a Demon.

I wouldn't mind Lewis Taylor lining up in red and blue if he decides he wants to move home.

Everything quoted was bizaare.  “I want to play some good footy and get my name out there,” 

Everything in the article suggests he's up for the highest bidder.

It's hard to tell in text form but I'm hoping that the "there's no pressure on me to perform or anything like that" was said sarcastically.

I don't read anything into what players do or don't say after getting 2nd degrees burns with Scully but them there are some bizarro comments.

I'd say he means that the club haven't told him that he is under pressure and unless he performs better he won't be offered a contract. 

All players want to get their name out there for various commercial purposes and endorsements.

I trust this was intentionally ironic? (If it wasn't you can claim that it was and we'll all believe you.)

I'm a Dean Kent fan, and this is a totally unfounded comment which is just based off a feeling I have had for a while,  but I could see him leaving. 

Again,  no basis for this,  and it's merely just a hunch,  but for some reason I've never had the same confidence that he would stay as I have with someone like Watts and Hogan,  or Viney.

Especially now that he is under performing up there. We should be able to get him cheaper. He is a class player, so skilled on both sides of the body. Can play forward, midfield, or back/wing. Good decision maker, could be a solid pick up. Underrated.

Dean has no idea what happens after September. Maybe that hammy he ripped so badly last year is just hanging in there. 

Otherwise it is a very strange response....

It's proabaly a little revisionist of me, but if I was the journo interviewing Kent, I'd ask for clarification on those remarks. If not then, definitely before it was put to print and published.

:wacko:

I would have thought it was sarcasm coupled with some average journalism.

I don't think that Kent's that smart. And if he was, he's stupid for answering in that way.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
