A strong, one grab
mark, and an accurate
kick for goal, Ross
Dillon joined Melbourne
from Kyabram and
played 85 VFL games
for the club between
1966 and 1972. He
topped the Demons'
goal kicking in
1969 with 53 goals
and the following
year with 47. In
1973 he joined Norwood
and added another
114 league games
over the next six
seasons. He was
the Redlegs top
goal kicker in his
debut season at
the club with 46
goals, and again
in 1975 with 66.
He won the club's
best and fairest
award in 1975, and
was at centre half
forward in that
years grand final
as the Redlegs downed
Glenelg by 2 goals.
Dillon, who had
earlier represented
the VFL at the 1969
Adelaide carnival,
also played 2 games
of interstate football
for South Australia.
