Cameron Michael Doyle (born 12 July 1964) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Collingwood in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Doyle, who came to the club from Preston, was picked up after being a part of Preston's premiership VFA side of 1984 where he was a starting back pocket. Doyle would go on to play four games for Collingwood in the 1985 VFL season, which included a three-goal debut, against North Melbourne. Doyle's 1985 season consisted of an average of 14 disposals, 5 marks, and 1.25 goals. Doyle's career-high would come in his third game a clash against Melbourne in Round 14 at the MCG. Doyle would boast a total of 19 disposals which included 16 kicks, 7 marks, and 1 goal. In Cameron's fourth game against Essendon at Victoria Park, he dislocated his shoulder just minutes before halftime. He was on track to have his career-best game with a total of 14 disposals and 7 marks. As a result of this injury he didn't feature at all in 1986 season before coming back and playing two games in the 1987 season. In October 1988, having not made a VFL appearance that year, Doyle was dropped from the Collingwood list.
Doyle then became a member of Coburg's 1989 premiership team.
Doyle now runs a memorabilia shop in Fitzroy called Memorabilia on Smith. He is married with three kids.
