[7][8] During the season, Weedon also represented Western Australia in one match at the 2009 National Under-18 Championships against Victoria Metro at Subiaco Oval,[9] recording eight possessions and kicking one goal.
[11] He missed most of his first pre-season due to injury, and spent much of the 2010 season in Claremont's reserves team, although he did play four senior games for the club, making his debut in round nine.
He started the season in Claremont's seniors, kicking 10 goals in his first five matches, but was elevated to West Coast's line-up after Patrick McGinnity was ruled out due to illness.
In assessments before his drafting in 2009, Weedon was described as a "hard-working forward who is extremely strong in the air", as well as "vision and awareness in traffic [and] sound defensive pressure skills".
[13] After kicking three goals from two games against Essendon and Fremantle in the first round of the 2012 NAB Cup,[21] Weedon was suggested as a possible replacement for Mark LeCras in West Coast's forward line, who was ruled out for the entire 2012 season after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament.
[22] John Worsfold, the current coach of West Coast, said of Weedon and Ashton Hams, another small forward, were "both physically more prepared to play at the elite level than they have been before".
