He and Tim "King of Ruckmen" English have each played 7 games this season. Here's the comparison:

Cameron is doing way more than English in virtually every category. If he were playing in a better team, the difference would, no doubt, be even more startling.

This man has bit by bit become a very important part of our side

Goes about his work with a methodical approach adding value to both ruck & forward line

Unassuming but very effective “team “ player

Didn't think he did much tonight, apart from the last few minutes

Wasn't a ruck, wasn't a forward

What am I missing?

I'm convinced he is good enough but I'm not sure he goes close to what a happy Mason would offer (when we needed him) under a fresh hungry coaching group.
Ideally this eventuates and we have the 3 of them at top form in 2022.
I'd Like to see That !

Cameron was tewrible for 118 minutes.
Good on him for sticking at it.
