Is Adam Treloar finished?
There’s serious questions being asked on the future of Adam Treloar after the Bulldogs veteran was benched for almost the entire third quarter of his side’s tough loss to Adelaide on Thursday night.
While coach Luke Beveridge defended the decision, Fox Footy’s experts have concerns over what the move means for the 33-year-old Bulldog who has battled a string of soft tissue injuries recently.
“It’s such a sad story because he was so recently a superstar of the game, 2024 an All-Australian. And right now at least, he’s what he never wanted to become which is a passenger,” Jon Ralph said.
“Only a handful of games last year – then he played a great VFL finals series where he convinced himself he could play on again under a one-year deal.”
Treloar finished the night with just 55 per cent time on ground – with only injured Crow Luke Pedlar having less game time and he was ruled out before half time.
He managed 10 disposals – six contested, two marks, one clearance and one tackle.
