Captaining her state as a younger teenager, Lane is still only 19 years-old and has come a long way in a few years. She remains one of the more natural defenders that are available, with the capacity to provide run, while also competing one-on-one. Over the years she has found her place in the Central District defence and though she has had her injury interruptions, Lane is one of the more reliable users by foot.

Lane is a player with plenty of potential and not much needing to be worked on from a technical standpoint. She is generally a strong kick of the ball, rarely making mistakes, and is able to mop up in defence and dispose of the ball under pressure. She is still building up her strength, but her major area of improvement is in metres gained, and backing herself to take the game on more. She has the foot skills to do the damage, so with a bit of confidence a club could take her game to the next level. A natural footballer in every sense of the word with skills and game smarts.
