Campbell was already 22 by the time he made his AFL debut in 2007. He came from Wagga Wagga originally and spent three seasons at South Australian National Football League (SANFL) Norwood before getting picked up in the 2006 National Draft.[1] An ankle injury kept him out of action for the first half of the 2007 season. In 2008 he made seven senior appearances.[2] He was delisted at the end of the season.
