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

[Blue By Blood]

Yes I'm finding it hard to get a read on this guy, looks solid without appearing an out and out gun.

One thing's for sure, BT will absolutely lose his s**t when DVR debuts.

He doesn't need to be a gun. If he can play a similar role to Matty Suckling from the Hawks I'll be a very happy man. It's not too much to ask for some precision, bullet passes coming off half-back with the occasional push up the ground to kick long goals from outside 50 with that deadly left leg is it?

Spot on, good foot soldiers like Carrazzo, Simpson, Scotland etc are invaluable. Not every player can be Juddy.

Not all the Hawks players are guns either. They have a lot of B+ players that just buy into the game plan and culture and do the job week in and week out. We don't need our draftees to be guns or heap that pressure onto them, we just need them to play to their individual strengths and buy into the culture and team first attitude that we are finally developing once again.

DVR may become an unassuming gun anyways! He reminds me a little of Brodie Smith from the Crows and he made the AA team this year.

If they give him number 24 I'll be calling him Beast Mode...because Skittles!!!

 

[The Grover]

I heard he is moving in with Ellard.

 

[Blues_FC]

Definitely fills a need at the club with what looks to be exceptional disposal.

Finally a replacement for Hoops?

Can you imagine anyone asking if we needed a replacement for Hoops back in the day?

Here's hoping he has a bit more mongrel then Ryan though

Had a friend tonight call him JoJo

Very happy we picked up JoJo.

Welcome JoJo.

JoJo was a man who thought he was a winger, but he was a half back flank

JoJo's team-mates trained in Tucson Arizona, but now they're heading to the Alps.

Get back. Get back. Get back to where you once belonged...

For all of hoops' faults, he sure could deliver the ball. Fevdemort used to say there was no one he'd rather have delivering the ball into 50.

What I like about DVR's highlights is that on top of the bullet passes, there's plenty of aerial contests. And he comes down with the pill in a fair few occasions (albeit highlights).

Cameras seemed to be focused on him a lot in his highlight package.

[Salt Lake Cities]

Best name in World Sports since Metta World Peace

Ha Ha Clinton-Dix. Safety for the Green Bay Packers. Best name in sports, possibly the world. Ever.

 

[King of Ruin]

Will Power, anyone?

 

[GT619]

Something about this kid that excites me, foot skills etc and a quality person. He's got leadership qualities written all over him

He looks so excited

My coach used to tell me touch the footy as much as you can, if you have 5 mins at lunch - grab a footy. He's getting some good practice at home with those skin footys...

Lucious Pusey - NFL
DeWanna Bonner - WNBA.
Rusty Kuntz - Baseball
God Shammgod - NBA

I think those are correctly spelled. Enjoy!

Clearly Dillon hasn't met Menz yet

 

[Azul]

Menz gone into hiding - no longer silkiest kick in the team

Since when did Yarran hand over that title?

 

[SE_Blue]

Wait until he mets Ellard

 

[ShanDog]

Imagine his reaction if Aaron Joseph came by for a visit!!

Oh no... Mister Carlton is getting in my head...

AJ was actually one of the friendliest blues I've ever met. Also a lifelong blues supporter
