Peter Cameron

During his career, Cameron also won the Bishop Shield, an award given to the AFL Umpires' Association's most outstanding field umpire for the year. He received this award in 1985.

Cameron began his umpiring career in 1977, the 279th field umpire to participate in VFL/AFL football. He quickly established a reputation as a fine umpire and practical joker, with one umpire remembering that he used to "cut the crotches out of our (underpants)." After just two years as an umpire, he received his first taste of the big time, being selected to officiate the night Grand Final between Collingwood and Hawthorn. It was another six years before he was appointed to his first day Grand Final, umpiring the Essendon-Hawthorn match of 1985. In all, Cameron officiated in three day Grand Finals (1985, 1986 and 1988) and four night Grand Finals (1979, 1981, 1985 and 1988), and at least one VFA Grand Final. Cameron finally retired in 1993, aged 42.
