You're a credit to yourself and your family CP. Keep that effort going in your future endeavours, and you won't likely go too far wrong. Congratulations.

    What a classy way to exit, there are lots of footballers who could take some lesson here. Way to go Cam !

    Myself and family very much enjoyed our chat at the MFC dinner last year. 

    You gave 100% to the club until the final siren. 

    We all wish you well with your thoroughly prepared for teaching career. 

    We will never forget that ground thudding concussion down the boundary at Williamstown, although we very much hope you do.

    Kudos on a career that offered MFC maximum advantage when we needed it most.

    Was ahead of our curve at Melbourne as far as developing a calm, humble and professional attitude. I'm quite sure he was a good example to the 'kids' coming through;, and his presence forever ready to step up would have been a good honesty check for the young talls.

    Can only speculate if his attitude also had something to do with how well several players responded to stints in the VFL, too.

    "Is Pedersen sooking? Then why are you sooking? Get on with it."

    I wonder what his ties with his junior/pre-AFL clubs are like, I can see him cheerfully dropping by to kick 12 goals in an afternoon while he is still fit.

    Has been a great servant for the club.

    Never dropped his bundle and gave it his all no matter the level he played at.

    Can leave with his head held high.

    Turned out to be a better trade than Dawesy.

    Pederson had the finest sporting attitude.  
    No evidence of him complaining or being a prima-donna when he was under-appreciated.  IMHO it was no coincidence that we usually won when Cam replaced Dawes at CHF, but lost when Dawesy was at CHF and Cam didn't play!  
    He earned my respect, I wish him every success and am sure he'll always be welcome at the club.

     Thanks Pedo, for coming to the Dees, when we were both a bit 'Off'.

    ...  thanks for giving your all to this club, and for getting the best out of each other.

     Its been a pleasure to see you take pride in you work, and give you best.    you left it all out there.

     

    Goodonya, St-Pedo.

    I've been wondering what he might do next. What sort of Masters degree has he earned?

    (And doesn't he own a shirt with collar and sleeves he could have worn to this event?)

    There would be few players that have had a s big a turn around in fan opinion than Cam Pedersen.

    His first match was a shocker and he spent his first two years on our list with people counting the days until his contact was up.  He retires a much liked and admired player for his contribution during the rebuild.

    Good on him.

    Love his choice of clothing.

    Will never forget the looks I got when I rocked up to my graduation at Monash in dirty jeans and an old jumper?

    Confirmed on the Phillip Island Football Netball Club Facebook Page. Sounds like he's moved to the Island. He'll smash it down there.

    My in-laws are down that way, San Remo and on the Island itself. Brother-in-law heavily involved in the Cricket Club...less so with the footy club now, getting a bit old for that.

    Well said, Cam Pedersen. Saw him numerous times chatting to fans in the stands before games or when not playing. He'll make a fine teacher.

    Great read. I still think he had something to offer this year, but don't blame him one bit for moving on.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
