He seems to be really appreciative of the club which is great. It's also his hard work and determination that has got him where he is, really happy for him. 

I am happy for him as well but it has taken a lot of years for him to work out what is required to play at this level.

That tweet of his, with his kids, is almost a bit of a tear jerker.

 

Cam has made team of the week again...2 weeks running !!

Well done lad.

Brave(stupid )  FD that drops this bloke  :rolleyes:

He's an enigma... I'm not sure where Cam sits in the best 22.  He looks a little lost when he's not the main focus, whether that be in the Ruck or the No 1 Key Forward.  His best football seems to be when he's floating around wing and half forward and able to hunt the ball and find some space for himself.

Will be interesting to see where he lines up this preseason as a forward line with TMac, Hogan and Pedo, sound a little too big on paper.

With Trak going into the middle more and Vanders out indefinitely, there’s an opening for a bullocking physical player who can also take a pack mark and spend time in the ruck.

Pedo made big strides last year, if fit he can be also be a link up presence...

If he's fitter I'm still not sure why he isn't right in contention for the CHB spot. He's an excellent mark, lovely kick and reads the play well.

It sounds like he has been training with the forwards, so I can't see him taking CHB.

That said, I don't think TMac, Hogan and Pedo/Weidemann/T Smith makes us too big up forward. I think having 2 genuine forwards and alternating a ruck/fwd is ok. If he's in the best 22 and the match up works then we should play those players.

Love his ground ball action, always gets it to a clean pair of hands or snaps without resistance - go pedo, you wonderful thing!

with Hannan, Garlett and Kent/Harmes cramming - it’s a scarily potent fwd line!

So much humanity in that tweet. That’s where sport overcomes the corporatisation of everything including itself. It’s possibly the most moving tweet I’ve seen from an MFC player.

I see Pedo as (potentially) in our best 22. He was AA standard for a while in 2017, but also went missing in certain games.

I really hope he brings his AA standard form this year. I’d love to see him get another contract extension.

I also see him as competing with the Weed, not Hogan or Tommy Mac, both of whom will be certainties to start in the forward line each week.

The games he went missing in were the ones he played alongside 2 other tall forwards.

I just can't see him playing with Hogan and Tommy Mc. Unless the make Hogan a midfielder for half the game or get really funky and play Tom on a wing for part of the game.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
