Greater Western Sydney (2012–2015)

Treloar was recruited by Greater Western Sydney as an under-age selection prior to the 2010 AFL draft[6] and played with the Dandenong Stingrays and the Noble Park Football Club during his junior career.[7] He made his AFL debut in round 3, 2012 against West Coast at Blacktown International Sportspark.[8] He was the round nomination for the Rising Star after the round 18, 120-point loss to Collingwood, where he amassed 39 disposals.[9] He went on to finish fourth overall in the award after receiving 15 out of a possible 45 votes.[10]

Treloar played 20 games during 2013, averaging 24 disposals a match, and finished fifth in the best-and-fairest count.[11] He was touted by former Hawthorn forward Dermott Brereton as the next Mark Ricciuto, saying that he had the potential to "be an absolute elite player in the midfield and be top five in the comp with his ability, with his skill set and with his want and desire for the game."[12] His 2014 season was described as "brilliant"[13] where he averaged 27.6 disposals and 5.5 tackles in 20 matches and finished fourth in the best-and-fairest count.[14] He was recognised as one of the best young players in the league by being selected on the wing in the AFLPA 22under22 team.[15]

Treloar had his best season to date during 2015 where he was the runner-up in the best-and-fairest, finishing behind Heath Shaw,[16] however, his season was filled with speculation that he would leave the Giants to return to his home state of Victoria.[17][18][19] He informed the club in September that he wanted to be traded[20] and nominated Collingwood as his preferred destination.[21]
