Dion Johnstone Biography

“He’s Indigenous and has really good character and there are always glowing endorsements from everyone we spoke to about Dion, which gave us a lot of confidence to pick him," Demons recruiting manager Jason Taylor said.

“He’s a small forward for Oakleigh Chargers and he finished off the year well there, and really hit the scoreboard late in the year. He’s got good speed, he can mark it and he can crumb.

“But he brings a bit of edge to his game and he’s quite a tough, small forward, so we’re rapt to bring him on board. We’re looking forward to seeing what he can bring.”
