Toast Pick #28: Welcome to Carlton Dillon Viojo-Rainbow

[AceAndy]

Welcome Viojo-Rainbow.

I am rethinking my last name rule.

Exactly what rule would that be MEB_ ??

 

[ferrisb]

Somewhere

I use only last names to cheer for players, never first.

I use only last names to cheer for players, never first.

If you never shout VOJO RAINBOW you'll be missing out on one of the great joys in life.

Something about how Mojo-Crossbow is too much of a mouthful.

 

[Jabba73]

Should really shine in the wet.

Welcome!

Dillon Viojo-Rainbow Position: Defender/midfielder
Height: 185 cm, Weight: 80 kg, DOB: 08/02/1996
Club: Western Jets
Projected draft range: 25-40
Plays like: Shannon Hurn

A penetrating and attacking rebounding defender, Dillon Viojo-Rainbow has a number of tools and traits that could see him develop into a 200-game player. He has a thumping yet accurate left foot that’s drawn comparisons to Shannon Hurn, along with the way he attacks the ball and likes to get up the ground. He hits the ball hard, flat and over long distances, while his intercept marking is also a stength. On top of that, he has deft touch at ground level and makes good decisions with the ball. He can be relied upon to take kick ins, and is often the Western Jets’ link-up player in defence, getting involved heavily in scoring chains. Being named in the bests in eight of a possible 10 games, Viojo-Rainbow has been used predominantly off half back but looks as though he could mould into a wingman with further development. In the TAC Cup, he’s been played in a number of varying roles: it’s that particular versatility that’ll be looked upon favourably in November. Of his strengths, Viojo-Rainbow’s run and carry, ability to read the ball in flight and his disposal by foot are the hallmarks of his game. He currently averages 16 disposals and five marks per game.

Looks quality and probably the player I am most excited about.

[Cringle]

Very happy we picked up JoJo. Adds something we don't have. Nice speed and elite kicking in the midfield. A great addition to complement Cripps and Graham.

 

[Kramer1]

Best name in World Sports since Metta World Peace

Fanny Chmelar...end contest.

 

[Loramarthalas]

Welcome JoJo. May all your kick-ins hit a target and may all your tackles stick.

 

[blueboy25]

Hope the AFL aren't planning on bringing back the names on the back of jumpers.

[Blue Flame]

Welcome to the gang, skittles.

 

[Quazza]

Had a friend tonight call him JoJo

I liked it and hope we can make it stick.

 

[Matty411]

I still like Vojo-Cinco (nfl fans will get it). So many possibilities.

 

[Dramoth]

Welcome to Carlton Viojo-Rainbow... your new Carlton supporter nickname is Hyphen.

 

[LordLucifer]

Welcome to Carlton Viojo-Rainbow... your new Carlton supporter nickname is Hyphen.

There was only one hyphen .........

 

[thylacine60]

Minton-Connell agrees with this.

 

[LordLucifer]

Yeah, there's a lot to like about JoJo

Why do I automatically think of Boz Scaggs now ??

 

[The Edukator]

You've been left on your own, by a Rainbow, a Rainbow in the Dark (Navy)

Not only is the song kick ass but it just seems so appropriate!

 

[Cringle]

Reckon he'll play predominantly midfield.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Mojo moves a bit like Luke Hodge....

 

[fnm_just a man]

Amazing kick. Wow. From the look of those clips, surely he's already the best kick at the club.

"pretty much like a bullet"

^ I see Hodgey more than Simmo as well.
