Absolute professional and seems lean again just concerned that his body is starting to be a concern. Important to our mix and depth through the middle so really hoping we see him string games together through March.
The Saints have Gresham on restricted minutes coming off his achilles injury due (in part) to the grounds being harder in summer.
I suspect the sports boffins have taken that into account with Treloar. He might be doing repeat 400s on the anti-G machine which are a killer anyway *


* Dane Swan used to do repeat 400m runs on the treadmill after training. The slack trainer schtick was BS, he busted his gut during the last 2/3rds of his playing career
