  • The History of the South Fremantle Football Club
    The History of the South Fremantle Football Club South Fremantle Football Club, nicknamed The Bulldogs, is a semi-professional Australian Rules Football Club and one of nine clubs that compete in the West Australian Football League (WAFL). It was formed in 1900 and has its training, administration and home games at Fremantle Oval. History The Fremantle Football Club (originally known as Unions and unrelated to either an earlier club which actually played rugby as well, or the current AFL club of the same name) had won ten premierships in the fourteen years that they were in the WA Football Association (now known as the West Australian Football League). By 1899, however, the club suffered from financial problems that caused the club to disband. The South Fremantle Football Club was formed to take their place following an application to the league by Griff John, who would be appointed secretary of the new club, with Tom O'Beirne the inaugural president. Most players, however, were from the defunct Fremantle club. The new club did well in its first year, finishing runners-up. However, over the next three seasons the performance fell away badly and, in April 1904 a Fremantle newspaper confidently reported that South Fremantle would not appear again. However, the club decided to carry on and centreman Harry Hodge took over as skipper, but the season was a disaster. The club won only one game. They won their first premiership in 1916 and went back-to-back in 1917, both times defeating their local rivals, East Fremantle in the final and challenge final.
