RYAN Cook is gearing up to lead South Fremantle for a fifth WAFL season and is on target to become the Bulldogs' longest ever serving captain surpassing 1997 premiership skipper Peter Worsfold during 2016.

Cook arrived at South Fremantle in 2011 after four seasons and 14 games with Collingwood in the AFL. He had an outstanding season in 2011 and then was appointed captain for 2012 and has remained the skipper of the Bulldogs ever since.

The 28-year-old has played 92 games with South Fremantle with 71 of those as captain while along the way winning two WJ Hughes Medals and representing Western Australia in four of his five seasons.

Adding a hard-nosed, tough and experienced midfielder was high on South Fremantle's shopping list ahead of the 2016 WAFL season and that's exactly what Shane Hockey provides with Jordan Matera and Steven Edwards providing plenty of talent and excitement to the Bulldogs squad as well.

South Fremantle's midfield has plenty of natural ball winners of high quality with the likes of Ashton Hams, Haiden Schloithe, Tim Kelly and Ryan Cook but one area that coach Todd Curley felt needed strengthening was a tough, tenacious in and under midfielder.

Hockey had earned a reputation as a tough-as-nails ball winner in the VFL with Frankston where he was captain up until the end of 2015.

BACKING in youth from South Fremantle's zone continues to be the Bulldogs' No. 1 focus and that has only been enhanced with the return to the club of four players from the AFL system.

Blaine Johnson (Carlton), Mason Shaw (Port Adelaide), Dylan Main (West Coast) and Tom Vandeleur (Fremantle) have all returned to South Fremantle for the 2016 WAFL season after finding themselves off AFL lists at the end of 2015.

It is a credit to South Fremantle that the club was able to secure the signatures of all four local products in an age when it's increasingly difficult to ensure the return of players to their original clubs with the other teams in the WAFL quick to swoop.

SOUTH Fremantle's 2016 WAFL season opener has been changed to an afternoon game to accommodate the Channel 7 broadcast from Fremantle Oval.

The Bulldogs were set to host West Perth under lights at the port to open the 2016 season on Saturday March 19. However, it was determined the lighting couldn’t be increased to a sufficient broadcast standard without affecting playability.

The fixture remains at Fremantle Oval on Saturday March 19 but instead of a night clash, it will now be in the afternoon as South Fremantle hosts West Perth with the Garlic Munchers Cup at stake.

SOUTH Fremantle's commitment to its development program and helping young players turn into strong senior players and people off the football field has been further enhanced with the new coaching staff announcement.

The Bulldogs decided to restructure the development program structure for the 2016 season despite the success the club has had in producing players that have turned into AFL and senior WAFL players in recent years.

The first step in that was the announcement of a new Academy Program coach Mark Foster. The former South Fremantle league player and reserves premiership player has taken over not only as coach of the colts for 2016, but also will oversee the coaching of all the club's development teams.

SOUTH Fremantle coach Todd Curley is looking forward to his second season at the helm of the Bulldogs and with a significantly more youthful squad at his disposal, he is sensing their excitement levels lifting with proper games not far away.

Curley took over as coach of South Fremantle for the 2015 season and while it was a year that showed promise, it ultimately was another finals-less result for a fourth straight season and that's not something anyone at the Bulldogs is willing to accept.

While some experience has left with the likes of Craig White, Paul Mugambwa, James Sellar and Kyle Hams departing with Cory Dell'Olio (suspended) and Jarrod Parry (knee) to miss all of 2016, Curley likes the group the Bulldogs have put together.
