2010 Player Review - # 32 Cameron Bruce

[Demonland 72,213]

Played as a tagger up forward and held his own against mid-sized forwards. Was consistent all season and will again poll highly in the club best and fairest. Stood up as a leader in James McDonald’s absence and is a leading candidate to be captain in 2011 - Luke Holmesby melbournefc

Out of contract, expected to be signed soon one would assume hopefully by following the club's lead who have been very good to him over a long time (some 10 years) and gave him his shot at AFL. Consistent, durable performer and decent utility now in the twilight of his footy career.

One more year for Cam.

Been a champ of the MFC.

Certainly one of our best players of the 2000-2009 decade. See how he goes next season. Doesn't necessarily have to be his last although more than likely it will be, but who knows, that's 11 months off yet. He's still able to cover the kilometres as well as ever and finds enough of the ball. Obviously his disposal can be poor but he is definitely in our best 22 at the moment in my opinion. Probably because they are both tall and skinny, Cale Morton reminds me of Bruce. They both find a lot of the ball. Hopefully Morton can become the player that Bruce was in 2005 before his injury.

- one of my favourite MFC memories. I loved that day. And Cam's "That's Gold!" celebration too, what a legend. Edited October 13, 2010 by Adelaide Demon

I agree. A couple of years ago I didn't think McDonald would make it to 2010 - it's hard to judge when the end will come.

I think I referred to Morton as a potential A-grade Bruce on here before.

Another reliable and consistent year from Cam. He's been a stalwart of the Club over the last decade, but I expect him to be overtaken by the youngsters by the end of 2011. Definately warrants only a one year contract from my perspective, and review at the end of the year to see if another 12 months is justified. I think Cam should be happy with that.
