It was a weekend in Freo last weekend with the guys at East Freo on Saturday and the girls at Freo Oval on Sunday.

Friday, July 31, 2020 - 10:48 AM - by Owen Davies

After a promising start at home in Round 1 it was difficult weekend away at East Fremantle last week. Such inconsistencies can only be expected from a young side still learning their craft. Add to that a side eager to make amends for their humiliating defeat a week prior and it was always going to be tough as we went down 6.9 (45) to East Freo's 13.9 (87).

Jackson Merrett was his usual steady self and was Read More [+]

How good is it to be back?!

On Saturday our boys returned to the field for the first time in 2020, taking on a Perth side that many had tipped could by a many to be a major force in 2020. Externally expected to be one-sided, the game proved to be a tight contest throughout with the Demons doing just enough to eke out a 10-point win.

Finally, we’re back!

Friday, July 17, 2020 - 5:04 PM - by Owen Davies

It’s hard to imagine when we closed out Season 2019 with a hard-fought win against Perth, it would be another 329 days before we would again take the field with premiership points on the line, but so is the climate in 2020.

On field what can we expect from our troops this year? That’s a tough one to gauge, obviously without our alignment with Fremantle Read More [+]
