Cost 3 times as much as Ben Brown

29 at the start of next year.
Dodgy hammies.
Frontrunner who plays well against poor teams. Did nothing against the Tigers in either the 2019 GF or 2017 Prelim.
Long and expensive contract when they have no A-grade young players to feed him the ball.
Not a key forward, more a flanker.
Cant stand him.

You seem to be quite fixated on Geelong

None of those games you’ve mentioned nor last night come even close to how bad he was in the 2016 prelim.

Ahem we traded for him with the picks WC gave us for Kelly. Pick 20 odd = Kelly = Cameron. Ludicrous to say it was a bad trade.
Sounds like a justification your coach would roll out.

Has he ever stood up in a final?

I'd go further to say big H&A games where he has had a decent opponent he gets similar stats to last night. Was disappointed we didn't play Taylor on him last week. Be interesting to see how he goes for life without Hawkins because Esava looks to be the only help he is gonna have.

Can't blame Jezza for the midfield getting smashed like under 12s.

The Blame should lie with Stephen Wells who blinked when the Giants matched the Cats FA offer and demanded 3 first round picks for Cameron.

Geelong should have walked away after that.

He's in his prime as a key forward, just can't get it up to him. Still did okay. It's not his fault but it's what people never really understood about Buddy at his prime when the next big thing is compared to him, he'd come down in a big game and get it on his own if it wasn't coming up, help out the midfield and still kick a couple.

Looks to me like Cameron's home and away and finals output are pretty comparable to other key forwards, as is his drop-off from H&A to Finals, being closer to Hawkins and Riewoldt than those 2 are to Kennedy.

I think he is past his prime as a player tbh. Time will tell I suppose.

Cameron is alot like Daniher, and not much better in games that matter

200cm forward flanker

Nah Cameron has won a Coleman Medal and won games off his own boot in the past.

Absolutely had a much better career than Daniher at this point in time

Might need to find one
Def think it was a bit harsh when our midfield couldn't get the ball inside 50 much
