Cameron came to Geelong from Echuca and had a solid second season, kicking 28 goals in 1987. That tally included a bag of eight goals against North Melbourne at the MCG to help spoil Donald McDonald and Andrew Demetriou's 100th games. He was used mostly at half forward but played as a forward pocket in the 1989 VFL Grand Final. Cameron, along with Shane Hamilton, was traded to Brisbane in return for the first selection in the 1990 AFL draft.[1] In 1991, his only season at the club, he kicked 26 goals.
