Heck this kid can play. Since taking the game on this year he has been super. To win a two on one after heavy aerial contest to bounce up and deliver a great pass it was like he was a cyborg
Vlos the Cyborg!
 
Fast becoming one of my faves.

I love footballers who never seem to make mistakes and take good options. It is what has made Cory Enright such a fantastic player for Geelong and Vlastuin is heading in that direction imo.

Love Flossy.

Underrated by the media.

agree - surprising how he just goes under the radar - I reckon he impacts games as much as Ellis this year but because he doesn't get the mass of possessions he doesn't have the profile.

He's going along well. Elliott sidestepped him for a goal when Vlas overcommitted. I'm sure he'll learn from that. Still plenty of room for improvement, which augurs well.
 
There's an article online (I'm sure you'll find it) about the vloss.
It refers to him as a small defender.
The writer obviously never stood next to him.
If you fired a steel rhino out of a cannon, you've got the vloss.
 
B+ footballer. Don't think he'll ever be a A grader but you know he'll stand up in finals footy.

Fearless. Composed. Powerful.

I think he's very close to being A Grade. If he starts winning more of the ball, he's there as a HBF imo.
