Bio
Recruited from Bairnsdale in the Gippsland region, Lochie Cameron arrived at Hawthorn as a physically imposing prospect during the club's difficult "Mayblooms" era. Standing 188cm—a giant stature for the early 1930s—he was a versatile big man capable of operating as a key position player or supporting the followers in the ruck. He joined a Hawthorn side that was struggling to find its feet in the VFL, often languishing near the bottom of the ladder, but Cameron managed to carve out a spot in the senior side for three consecutive seasons. After 28 games and nine goals, his league career concluded at the end of 1934, marking him as a serviceable country recruit who battled hard during one of the club's leanest periods.
