West Coast small forward requests move out of the club

UPDATE

Jarrod Cameron will take leave from footy.

It’s not retirement, but it’s a break from the game.

The 21-year-old has endured a tough couple of years with injury.

EARLIER

Exciting West Coast forward Cameron has played his last game for the club.

Cameron is contracted until the end of 2022, but has told the Eagles he doesn’t want to play for them next year.

It is unclear whether Cameron is keen to continue his AFL career at another club or step away from the game.

The goal-sneak showed exciting glimpses of his talent the second half of 2019 with consecutive four-goal hauls against Fremantle and Collingwood and signed a new two-year deal.

But injuries have cruelled him since, with Cameron managing only five games last year and none this year.

The brother of Brisbane superstar Charlie, Cameron was taken by West Coast with pick 39 in the 2018 national draft as a Next Generation Academy player.

Cameron’s departure follows the retirements of Daniel Venables and Nathan Vardy, while Mark Hutchings and Brendon Ah Chee were not offered new contracts for next year.

Jarrod Brander has been told to explore his options during next week’s trade period, with Sam Petrevski-Seton set to join from Carlton.
