Western Bulldogs midfielder Adam Treloar has put the onus back on the playing group after a disappointing fortnight of football.

Following consecutive losses to Fremantle and Hawthorn, despite the Bulldogs being well and truly in both games late, Treloar said the players need to be held accountable.

“We knew there was obviously going to be quite a bit of pressure, but as a playing group we wholeheartedly take responsibility for the results that we’re putting out there,” he said.

“To be quite frank the last two games clearly haven’t been up to scratch for us.

“I feel like you know we’ve been in the games itself, but we’re the ones ultimately out there not performing and not nailing our opportunities.

“(We were) fully expecting the pressure to come for Bevo, but the reality is we’re the ones who are out there performing.

“I feel like the coaches are preparing us really well and really setting us up to go out there and win and have success and ultimately we’re the ones that … aren’t performing.

“So as a playing group we’re really disappointed that we’re not going out there and delivering on what we want to deliver.”

Treloar also strongly backed senior coach Luke Beveridge, jeering at questions suggesting he had lost the playing group.

“What do you think the answer is going to be? Absolutely, of course he does (have the playing group’s support),” Treloar said.

“We love playing for him. He bleeds red, white and blue, he’s a Bulldog man.

“Personally, I love playing for him. I think he’s a great coach and a great human being and I love playing underneath him.
