The pep talk that inspired Jeremy Cameron and Patrick Dangerfield to turn game for Geelong Cats against Adelaide Crows


With his team eight points down as he left the huddle at three-quarter-time, Cats’ forward Jeremy Cameron and his skipper Patrick Dangerfield sauntered into the forward line.

Between them, the pair have a Brownlow Medal, a Coleman Medal, six club best-and-fairest awards, 12 All-Australian blazers and were teammates in the 2022 premiership.

Dangerfield took in what the laconic, occasionally distracted, always capable Cameron had to say.

“He said ‘this is what we are paid to do. This is the time to turn the game’,” Dangerfield recalled post patch.

“We are senior leaders within the team … we kicked two early and everyone else jumped on board. It was a great example of leadership from him.”

Cameron kicked the first two goals of the quarter, Dangerfield kicked the next two. Within 10 minutes, the imperious pair had put the game out of the Crows reach.

They finished with eight between them for the game as they kicked into gear as a unit inside 50 for the first time this season, leading the Cats to an impressive win, 18.11 (119) to Adelaide’s 15.10 (100).

Cameron’s performance was his best for the season. It came after he spent time on the bench in the second quarter as Geelong slipped five goals behind the Crows.
