Only one Bulldogs player put his head up and spoke to the media after the terrible Hawthorn loss – Adam Treloar. He said what you’d expect, that it wasn’t Luke Beveridge’s fault, that the players had to take responsibility, and blah, blah, blah. But Treloar showed he could talk the talk and walk the walk. The next match he had 41 against Richmond and on Saturday in the heavy going against the Giants, he was best afield with 35 disposals. Queries about whether he gets down and dirty were also allayed because he had a game high 23 contested possessions. It was a match played in contest and on the deck, and Treloar and new midfield mate Ed Richards beat the much-heralded Giants midfield. Treloar is 31, is at his third club and is playing the best footy of his career. His ambition, of course, is to win a premiership. Personally, he would love to be an All Australian. He’s behind others for a starting spot in this year’s team but he should be in the mix to be in the AA squad. He deserves it.
20 groundball gets, next best on the field was 10, and only 6 clearances in that mix. That speaks to how we was able to get from contest to contest, and pounce on loose balls.
The last two weeks he's gone to a new level. Probably no coincidence that Richards has played his best two midfield games, they've looked formidable in partnership.

we have turned to speed, I believe this was part of the rejig we might have had planned in the review.
