South Fremantle (2291 words) |
 | South Fremantle's 1918 campaign ended on a demoralising note with a 65 point semi final loss to East Perth, and this defeat signalled the onset of a frustrating twenty nine year run during which the club were consistently 'thereabouts' but never 'there'. |
 | South Fremantle's record during the under age competition which the WANFL conducted from 1942-44 was poor (6th out of 7 clubs in 1942, and last of 8 in both the following seasons) and did not engender confidence for the resumption of the 'real stuff' in 1945. |
 | Nevertheless, over the course of the entire season South Fremantle had clearly been the dominant side in the competition, as was evidenced by the fact that, in addition to the premiership, the club provided both the top goalkicker in the shape of Naylor and the Sandover Medallist in the person of Clive Lewington. |
