After Geelong’s players sat through a session about coping with the stress of being an AFL player, Jeremy Cameron is said to have asked a teammate why anyone would be stressed playing AFL football.
The 29-year-old can’t remember if that was actually what he said, but he agrees it’s consistent with his overall philosophy towards the game as he prepares for his second grand final in four seasons.“I can’t remember that exact sort of quote. Nigel Lappin, our sort of forward-line coach that we sort of talk to the most out of the coaches, stresses for me, so I don’t have to worry about that,” Cameron laughs.
That lightness of touch extends to his left foot, which he often uses to caress the football towards a target, as he did when he kicked a match-defining goal from the boundaryThis season Cameron has kicked 63 goals, the fourth time he has reached that target but the first time in his career he has passed 60 goals with a teammate eyeballing him on the goalkicking table.
Jeremy Cameron celebrates a goal with Tom Hawkins. The pair have kicked 127 goals between them in 2022.to Cameron when he decided to exercise his free agency rights and depart Greater Western Sydney, having led the Giants’ goalkicking in each of his nine seasons at the club. The pair both love their farms too, although teammates would question how much advice Hawkins could give Cameron on that topic.
