Cameron's a gun who has grown up a lot, he got stale at GWS I reckon and uncle Leon is a shit coach that makes players lose interest and desire.

Let's face it, who in their right mind would want to don a guernsey with orange and charcoal colours?

If I felt my work had stolen $1m off me I’d only give half efforts aswell. Cameron has every right to be pissed at GWS

I think he'll excel in a less congested forward line, Collingwood had too many scoring options for him to average over 2 per game, they were the easiest team to add multiple scorers in for SGM's.

Except they could barely kick a winning score

Too many options? Cox, Mihocek, De Goey, Stephenson, that's about it.

Exactly, only 5 teams scored less than them.

I think he's monumentally over rated, pea hearted and you're making a mistake. But that's just my opinion.

Absolute jet when he's up you can't deny that.
For some reason he's become timid and so lacking in confidence.

I didn't see any of these traits in his first year and a half.
Shit footballer's don't win the rising star award.

I wouldn't be pissed if we kept him cause he may be able to turn it around.
Having said that, if he can't find the courage to hit in when he needs to then see ya later.

He was afraid to make a mistake this year and it showed...needs a break out game to get the confidence back and he'll be right

For that amount of money I'd play in any colour you like.
Even brown and gold ;)

Had a break out first season when Collingwood were at their best with the current group, since then he's been largely ineffective.

I'd back away from calling him an "absolute jet" when it comes to small forwards around the league.

Tough assessment

First year wins Rising Star
Second season gets banned for stupidity
Third year preseason is ruined due to glandular fever

Reid played 2 games. Phillips kicked 5 goals.

We're down to 7. 6 play forward every week.

His contract was really, really heavily back ended to help out the club and he was set to earn well over $1m in his final year but when Covid hit the AFL they cut salaries in half meaning Cameron lost the rest of his money. He tried to negotiate a new deal with the Giants that would include a couple of hundred thousand extra for the next few years to compensate and they knocked it back so he walked out
