Collingwood’s key ruckman, Darcy Cameron, has publicly stated his intention to remain with the Magpies, despite reported interest from West Coast. The 29-year-old, who hails from Western Australia, has been a pivotal figure in Collingwood’s lineup, particularly in the absence of Brodie Grundy. Cameron has stepped up as a key ruckman for the side and has been playing arguably his best season, with the team achieving six wins to two losses with him in the role .collingwoodfc.com.au
West Coast, facing challenges in their ruck department since Nic Naitanui’s twilight years, is believed to be in the market for another on-ball tall. However, Cameron’s recent contract extension with Collingwood indicates his commitment to the club .FOX SPORTS
Collingwood coach Craig McRae has expressed confidence in retaining Cameron, emphasizing the club’s desire to keep their key players. The Magpies are reportedly preparing to offer Cameron a new contract to secure his services for the long term .collingwoodfc.com.au+3heraldsun+3afl.com.au+3FOX SPORTS
