Bulldogs best and fairest: Defender voted top

KEY DEFENDER Tom McGregor, one of the favourites for the Loddon Valley’s best and fairest award, has taken out Pyramid Hill’s top award for the 2024 season.
Although he played only 15 home and away matches for the Bulldogs, his role in leading one of the league’s tightest defences was rewarded with the club’s best and fairest prize.
McGregor will have a key role in Pyramid Hill’s push for a premiership after the Bulldogs finished second on the ladder.
