Just announced his retirement. Always loved his style. Great poise, athleticism and kept a cool head out there. Was a big part of our rebuild and played some great footy for us as recently as late last year. Thought he was stiffed not to get more of a look this year, but that’s how it goes. Thank you for your service, Mr. P.

Had more to add!

 

Good luck to him with his future endeavors. Was a handy player for us when called upon.

thanks for your service mate, always gave 100%

 

"What a whirlwind the past 6 years have been! Time is up for me at this great club but I’m very proud where the club sits moving forward. A big thank you to all the supporters and the @melbournefc and @caseydemons for all the support over the years."

 

Got the absolute most out of himself as a player

Kudos to him.. the battle cry of ‘Pedo power!!’ Will be missed

Good luck Cameron. 

 


will miss yelling PEEEEDDDDDDOOOOOOO!

put in some great efforts, especially when Gawn went down last year

there will be quite a few list changes this year!

Thanks Pedders!

Always gave his all. Not the most skilled, but worked his backside off.

 

Always gave his all, that is all you can ask. 

Good Luck in future Cam

Thanks...


Loved watching Pedo over the last few years, had great delight in watching him take massive grabs around the ground.

Great clubman and person to boot.

#Peeeeddddooooo

Thanks for the memories.

A timely retirement. 

Really good to see a player go gracefully when he knows father time is calling. Perhaps he chose retirement over being delisted, but still shows good judgement.  

Liked him a lot. 

Seemed to be a great club man and gave it his all.

A real goer and competitor. .

Thanks for everything Cam!

Your stint as an undersized ruckman in 2017 in the absence of Max Gawn rightfully deserves its place in Demon folklore. 


He’s been a good servant of the club over the years, and developed himself in to a handy player after an ordinary start under Neeld. He’s probably the type of player that perpetually needed a fire under him to keep him performing, but that’s okay, we’re all different. 

He was the ultimate spare parts player and would jokingly make reference to it whenever interviewed. His best effort was no doubt in 2017 when he single-handly had to carry us in the ruck when Max was injured through the middle of the season. This was a Herculean effort that shouldn’t be understated.

He comes across as a team man - always seemed happy to share in others achievements that didn’t involve him, like grinning from ear to ear in the rooms after a win he didn’t play in, or his embrace of Harrison Petty in the video the club put after the Petty was told of his debut. In the latter case, Petty’s selection was ahead of Pedersen himself.

Thanks for your services Cam and all the best.

Hats off. Not Demon royalty, but certainly a reliable courtier.

And we'll always have his big pack mark and his beautifully weighted pass to T-Mac in the last quarter in Perth in 2017.

Sure this isn't a #pedomyth?!!! ?

Got to hand it to him, Pedo gave his all for the team. Presented himself for selection weekly with little fuss and maximum effort. Truly an honorable servant of the club.

I wish him and his family nothing but gratitude and best wishes.

Has he retired?  PR says he won't be offered another contract.  I draw the distinction only to say that another club may pick up as a Delisted FA and if so good on him.

Whatever the future holds I wish him and his family well.  He has been a terrific, flexible and willing asset for us and a very loyal team member.  Will always be a red and blue fave!


Thanks for all the years and blood, sweat & tears, and terrific effort in 2017.

Gun in VFL, just lacking the little extra to be a permanent fixture in The Ones!

Best of luck for the future. 

Loved his endeavour, loved watching him play. Most definitely got the most out of his himself. Took some massive marks and I’ll never forget that goal from the pocket.

I greatly admire Pedo for the way he combined his role as a 'fringe player' on our list, with being a 'heart and soul' clubman, whether in the seniors or at Casey, and both on and off the field.  Always gave his all, and you can't ask more than that!  If he does the same in the next phase of his life, he'll do well.

 

Cam never left anything behind in terms of endeavour (a good example to others) and gave us good solid service.

Thanks and good luck in the future.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
