Cam Pedersen - anything to worry about?

Featured Replies

I was at the game but forgot to tape it.

Pedersen's bump in the goal square didn't look good at the game but iย don't have the benefit of a TV replay.

Any concerns ?

ย 

I reckon he's gone. Which is a massive shame because he's making a reasonable fist of it at the moment.ย 

ย 

Wouldn't surprise me if he gets a week


Commentators made no mention of it whatsoever and they're usually pretty good at that.

I reckon initial contact was with with shoulder (which took the brunt of the impact) but slid up for low impactย to the head. ย Careless at worst.

ย 

One weekย 

ย 

if he gets a week for that Jeremy Cameron should get 5

Radio coverage mentioned it a fair bit. SEN saying he will miss at least the first round.

ย 

I thought it was a fair bumb, the ball was right in front of him, first contact was the shoulder and low contact would be overstating it, if he gets weeks for that it may as well be a non contact sport

ย 

Contact was clearly to the Saint's shoulder, the Saint having bent forward as Pedo went to bump him. ย No head contact. The 'victim' was uninjured ย 

But being a MFC player he will go for 1 or maybe 2

ย 

Yes, he is in trouble. Largely because of the lottery system underlying the MRP. Anything could happen.

I can still remember Moloney getting 2 weeks for NOT hitting someone!

that'll teach him to miss.

It looked like he intentionally went to bump and got the player in theย head so that will probably be aย week only because there wasn't anyย injury to the other player otherwise it would be longer.

2-3 weeks.

Might be hard to fit both he and Frost in anyway and whilst both offered something I doubt either nailed a spot today. Might save the coaches from a tricky decision.ย 

His biggest problem is that he clearly took his eye off the ball and focused on the player.

probably get a week

Only if they use the Moloney precedent- 2 weeks for not hitting the head.

Look again, ILLD:. Contact was to the shoulder. ย 

Hit under the shoulder which forced the arm upwards and made it look high.

Will get off.

Or I'll bake Stuie a kilo of hash cookies.

Pedos last quarter was inspiring.

Agreed. He clearly took his eye off the ball and this could cost him

ย 

If we lose Pederson for one week and GWS lose Cameron, we still will be better off. Not having him as well as the loss of McCarthy will be a massive loss for their forward potency.ย

why the [censored] would you keep your eye on the ball when you are going to bump someone. crazy statement

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
