Tigers may poach Demons recruiter
Stephen Rielly | June 29, 2007 | The Age
WITH almost a decade of relative stability up-ended by the sudden resignation of coach Neale Daniher on Wednesday, the Melbourne football department could be confronting the loss of a second key figure before the season is out.
Melbourne recruiting and list manager Craig Cameron is understood to be the person Richmond has identified to succeed Greg Miller as the club's new head of recruiting-related football operations.
The Tigers intend to reorganise the structure of their football department and like several clubs before them want to prioritise recruiting, trading and list management, responsibilities that Cameron has handled throughout the decade of Daniher's time at Melbourne.
If the Tigers are successful in poaching him — Cameron signed a fresh three-year contract with the Demons last year after being courted by Fremantle — it would leave only Chris limpan, Melbourne's football operations chief, of the group that was brought together in late 1997 to work alongside Daniher, who will coach the club for the last time tonight.
Then Melbourne chief executive Cameron Schwab hired Cameron, lured Danny Corcoran from Essendon to head up the football department, oversaw the appointment of Daniher and then hired limpan. Corcoran left to become chief executive of Athletics Australia in 2004 but until Wednesday the group had otherwise remained together.
Cameron, whose father Barry played 96 games for the Tigers between 1956-66, could not be contacted yesterday but Richmond sources confirmed that he was recently approached by president Gary March.

All I can say is there are ppl down there with huge mouths. And if they want the world to know about secrets, all they have to do is tell Jack and they know the world will know about it in five seconds. I hardly call that a scoop ::)
Let's say for all concerned, Cameron better be darn good at his job :)
No pressure on the guy, but hey Jack's built him up to be the next best thing. We shall see!

i dont want to bag u, just want u to stop beating around the bush

let it out , if what ever u know is true and fact, u cannot be sued for making up crap
go on
stand up

this way if it is true we can pat you on teh back
I have no doubt Jack knows stuff about the club, but whether it's what will be good for the club is another matter.
Pat on the back? Won't be from me :banghead
Wallace is doing a good job IMO
This propaganda exercise to get Sheeds to Richmond is not IMO in the best interests of the club and Jack is right behind it.
Very gutless to back away from his statements all year by saying he doesn't make decisions at the club.
He may not, but he's certainly doing the job of some elements of the club who would like to see Wallace gone.
And who are these faceless people, Jack?
-
Look here Moi, The Sheedy thing is well before Wallace even got to Richmond.
Lets move on shell we.

Cameron has done a reasonable job, got McLean and Petterd as well as couple of other talents.
Would prefer to nab Derek Hines from Collingwood.
Is a Richmond man and has drafted superbly the past few years.
Thomas, Pendlebury, Reid, Dick, Goldsack.
All have come on very quickly and are disciplined :thumbsup

Underwhelming to say the least looking at that. Some solid footballers picked up in that lot but only Cam Bruce and Robbo (who was already on their list prior to 1998) would have been called A-graders.
They've given up a few players who've become good players. Simmo, Scott, Thompson (who wanted to go home), Bishop, Jolly.
The only thing that is really positive and far superior to Richmond is the number of rookies they've had that have made it over the past 10 years. Made up for some ordinary early draft picks. But with Foley, Thursty and King we've done alright with our rookies in the past 2-3 years after wasting it for so long.
The Dees recruiting was criticized in the Herald-Sun today for failing to find KP defenders since they made the 2000 GF.

derek hines please come to Richmond :pray :pray :pray :pray :pray :pray :pray :pray :pray :pray
-
I agree that Hine has a better record and seems to have a good eye. Id prefer Hine to Cameron.
-
Brock McLean is probably the only Demon we'd be interested in poaching as he's a young inside midfielder although the Demons would never let him go.
Colin Sylvia played the best game I've seen him play last night given all the hype when he was drafted but we already have similar types to him on our list already. Same with Bate. We don't need another midfielder with no right foot. Nathan Jones has done fairly well this year given his young age and experience. The rest of the Melbourne midfield is their old brigade.
-
Didnt McLean sign a 3 year deal last year to stay at the demons?
-
Look here Moi, The Sheedy thing is well before Wallace even got to Richmond.
Lets move on shell we.
But I reckon that's part of the problem.
It would appear to me a tleast that at the end of 2004 when we appointed Wallace that we had moved on from the "sheedy come home to Richmond" soap opera that has been running close to 20 odd years now (5 year contracts sort of sends that message).
Clearly in the eyes of some (those who I refer to the faceless ones) they have not as this old (and might I say now very boring) chestnut reappears. They bring out their big spoons to stir their equally big pots because they are driven by their massively oversized egos!
As for Craing Cameron - if that's who the RFC are targeting then that is fine too if they believe he is the best person for the job but I think to suggest or imply that Wallace wouldn't be aware of it or that Cameron is going to come based on there being a change of coach is too bizzarre even for our Club ::)
-
No further news on us and Craig Cameron but another Demon employee has left their footy department with Chris Fagan resigning as Melbourne's general manager of football operations to take up a coaching and player development role with Hawthorn.

Richmond poised to recruit top recruiter
Caroline Wilson | November 28, 2007 | The Age
RICHMOND has waited until after the national draft to secure one of the most highly regarded recruiters in the AFL in one of at least two high-profile appointments to be announced next week.
The Age understands that long-time Melbourne talent scout Craig Cameron has all but sealed a deal with the Tigers to take over the club's recruiting and list management with a view to ultimately handling player contracts as well.
Although Cameron committed to the Demons along with Melbourne's then football manager Chris Fagan one year ago to a three-year term, he is expected to exercise a three-month departure clause in his contract, as Fagan did back in August when he announced he was moving to Hawthorn.
The Tigers, who have been criticised for their recruiting in recent years, have been seeking a new senior football executive to take over the club's recruiting and list management, with Greg Miller slowly leaving that job although remaining at the helm of the club's football department for now.
Cameron was an early favourite of the board, given his impressive credentials, which were bolstered by the fact that he grew up a passionate Tigers supporter, the son of former Richmond player and life member Barry Cameron.
Cameron is believed to have broached the subject of his departure with senior Melbourne personnel but was unwilling to leave the Demons before completing the national and pre-season drafts. He was not available for comment yesterday but is understood to be close to negotiating a term of at least three years at Richmond.
The club is also on the verge of appointing a human resources executive to oversee the club's player development, along with that of all club staff, in a bid to improve the psychological profile of the club's list. It is understood the new position will be filled by a senior official from the Australian Institute of Sport.
Cameron will oversee Richmond's recruiting but the club will also retain the services of recruiting manager Francis Jackson.

one step closer of getting miller closer to the door!
-
one step closer of getting miller closer to the door!
I wouldn't have thought so X. He has always said he's spread too thin. I think you are going to have to put up with Miller for a while yet.
-
the only thing that will save miller long term is if we suddenly improve beyond belief and mitch morton, jordy and jon all become very handy players . then alot weight will be behind miller
-
good appointments although id like to see us appoint a high performance manager as well.
-

If those players fail and Miller's role is not exclusively to do with trading or recruiting then I do not see that his position is under threat. He is moving himself away from that area, something I am sure you are pleased about, so I can't see Miller being forced to go anywhere. Personally I feel it is a bit of a stretch to blame Miller exclusively for the teams performance and any bad (or good) recruiting decisions. I do not have the sort of inside information that would allow me to make that sort of call. The information I have is mainly rumours and scuttlebutt I read on these boards which, though interesting, I take with a grain of salt.
It is far too early to write Morton, McMahon or JON off yet especially since 2 of them haven't even played a game for us yet. If this is the only criticism of Miller then I can only see his position as safe and he won't be going anywhere unless he decides too.

good news keeps coming, and very happy to see francis jackson still there :gotigers

The deal with Cameron was done in last April. ::)

Tigers may poach Demons recruiter
Stephen Rielly | June 29, 2007 | The Age
WITH almost a decade of relative stability up-ended by the sudden resignation of coach Neale Daniher on Wednesday, the Melbourne football department could be confronting the loss of a second key figure before the season is out.
Melbourne recruiting and list manager Craig Cameron is understood to be the person Richmond has identified to succeed Greg Miller as the club's new head of recruiting-related football operations.
The Tigers intend to reorganise the structure of their football department and like several clubs before them want to prioritise recruiting, trading and list management, responsibilities that Cameron has handled throughout the decade of Daniher's time at Melbourne.
If the Tigers are successful in poaching him — Cameron signed a fresh three-year contract with the Demons last year after being courted by Fremantle — it would leave only Chris limpan, Melbourne's football operations chief, of the group that was brought together in late 1997 to work alongside Daniher, who will coach the club for the last time tonight.
Then Melbourne chief executive Cameron Schwab hired Cameron, lured Danny Corcoran from Essendon to head up the football department, oversaw the appointment of Daniher and then hired limpan. Corcoran left to become chief executive of Athletics Australia in 2004 but until Wednesday the group had otherwise remained together.
Cameron, whose father Barry played 96 games for the Tigers between 1956-66, could not be contacted yesterday but Richmond sources confirmed that he was recently approached by president Gary March.

Bailey will fight to keep recruiter
AFL site
By Jennifer Witham
MELBOURNE coach Dean Bailey said he'll make it "very, very difficult" for highly regarded recruiter Craig Cameron to leave the Demons, despite recent speculation the talent scout is headed to Richmond.
Bailey said Cameron was considering his options having been approached by "another AFL club", but the Demons boss hoped his chief recruiter would remain with the Demons.
"He's been a great recruiting person at Melbourne, so we're going to be doing everything we can to keep him at the club," Bailey said on Thursday.
"I hear there's a rumour out there somewhere, but he's a fantastic recruiting manager and I hope he's still here with us.
"I understand there's another AFL club looking at him. He's got to make a decision on whether he wants to stay or go.
"We've spoken to him, the rest is in his court. We're going to make it very, very difficult from Craig Cameron to leave Melbourne."
Bailey said Cameron, who only five days ago oversaw the recruitment of five new young guns, had been very open with the coaching staff on the possibility of leaving the club.
He also said he wasn't concerned about the situation unfolding with both the NAB AFL Pre-season Draft and the NAB AFL Rookie Draft approaching in the next month.
"Craig is a very honest and up front person. He hasn't hid anything from me, or Chris Connolly or anyone," he said.
"Craig is a very professional person. He'll handle it and he'll make a decision."

After six months you would think he would have made his decision by now.

I get the feeling we won't get an announcement before the PSD and Rookie drafts are over. Fair enough too, he still has a job to do for the Dees.

Have been told this isnt set in place yet, will just have to wait and see what eventuates.

From the Sunday Age
MELBOURNE will look to replace recruiting manager Craig Cameron from within its own stocks, should the highly regarded talent scout leave the club in favour of Richmond.
Cameron is believed to be considering a long-term offer from the Tigers and his departure would be the latest in a long line for the club.
Both clubs expect Cameron's decision early this week, and should he choose the Tigers, he will be in the unusual position of still holding the reins for Melbourne at the pre-season draft later this month.
Melbourne's new football operations manager, Chris Connolly, said Cameron would be missed at the club.
"Craig is well respected, he has been one of the great servants of the Melbourne Football Club," he said. "He has been smart enough to be able to set up a system that if he moves on, others can fulfil his role … But he will be very hard to replace."
It is believed the Tigers have made Cameron a long-term offer to take over recruiting at Punt Road Oval.
Richmond chief executive Steven Wright said the Tigers were set to make football staff changes but would not confirm details or speak about individual approaches.

Not sure about the "top recruiter" title but anything that boosts our recruiting is a major step in the right direction. Well done RFC :clapping.
Based on the past two drafts Francis has done a pretty good job with our National draft picks while Cameron seemed to have a knack of finding a number of rookies at the Dees who then went on to become decent AFL players. Hopefully combined they'll make a pretty formidable recruiting department.
-
Camerons last effort with Morton, Grimes, Maric and Cheney was a very good effort. I actually liked Cheney and hoped hed fall to a rookie spot. Cameron did a good job and he has left some very good talent at Melbourne.

That's true Ramps, Melbourne did well. I was going more by Cameron's overall record at the Dees.

My mate was telling me that CC has a very good web of contacts aussie wide, that he reckons will only improve our list management and recruitment, and apparently that CC has always harboured a desire to come over to our football club. :thumbsup

Craig Cameron has been given a 5-year contract as list and strategy manager after being "wooed" for months.
http://www.realfooty.com.au/news/news/richmond-snares-recruiter/2007/12/03/1196530577182.html
Richmond Chief Executive Steven Wright couldn't contain his delight at snaring Cameron from Melbourne who just oversaw the Demons' latest intake of five draftees at last month's draft.
"Craig is held in extremely high regard throughout the football industry and we are delighted that he'll be joining us in the New Year," said Wright.
"His main responsibility will be putting together the best possible playing list for the club moving forward."
Richmond director of football Greg Miller, who has been criticised this year for wearing too many hats in the Tigers' football department, will have his workload eased as a direct result of Cameron's appointment.
Miller will now oversee the football department that now comprises Cameron and recruiting manager Francis Jackson.

Cuddles is Chris Connolly, ex-Freo coach.
Don't know what the possie was though.

Ahhhh. Thanks wayne. Anything to do with Connolly is bound to be a disaster. He and Lyon deserve each other.
