SOUTH Fremantle and Subiaco have respectively lost their only matches of the 2015 WAFL season over the past two weeks meaning there is no undefeated team left in the competition and the winner of Saturday's clash at Fremantle Oval will subsequently shoot clear on top of the ladder.

It is a big day of football at Fremantle Oval starting in the morning with the colts match starting at 9am with the reserves to follow at 11.30am and then the main event league fixture at 2.15pm. It will also be broadcast live on 91.3 SportFM.

Following the league fixture, the WAWFL season also opens its 2015 season with the South Fremantle women's team hosting the Coastal Titans with that match bouncing down at 5.15pm and will continue under lights at Fremantle Oval.

IT HAS a been a positive start to the 2015 season for us winning three out of our first four games and the feeling around the playing group is fantastic; being in this position within our first month is something we haven’t had for years.

In saying that, it is only Round 5 coming up this Saturday against Subiaco and we still have a lot to improve on with much of the season left to go. 

Since the start of our pre-season in November we have completed a mass of running and skill drills but Todd has placed an emphasis on the squad being one collective unit. Throughout off-field sessions we have focused on being honest with what we want to achieve and how we will go about it. Everyone wants to achieve the ultimate success of holding the premiership cup on grand final day but there are many steps in getting to that stage. The group constantly reflects on our core values both on and off the field, which we know if done correctly, will hold us in good stead throughout the season.

SOUTH Fremantle suffered its first loss since Round 18 last year going down to Swan Districts by 21 points at Steel Blue Oval on Saturday in a tight and tough affair.

The wet and windy conditions along with the ferocious pressure and attack on the ball from both teams ensured that it was a torrid affair at Bassendean on Saturday.

The breeze also had a significant impact on the match with Swans leading by 16 points at quarter-time but the Bulldogs getting back to within two by half-time.

KYLE Hams has no trouble admitting to enjoying his three years with Swan Districts but a year out of the WAFL had him craving one more crack and the chance to try to win a third premiership with South Fremantle and his twin brother Ashton was too much to turn down.

Hams played 106 matches and was a key player in the back-line in South Fremantle's premierships in 2005 and 2009, but he was feeling a little stale with the Bulldogs at the end of 2010 and was considering doing in 2011 what he ended up doing in 2014 - taking time away from the WAFL.

He has always wanted to move back to Busselton to live, and he has done that, but Swan Districts made him an offer too good to refuse in 2011 and he ended up having three outstanding seasons with the black-and-whites.

ALTHOUGH I’ve enjoyed reading the players columns from the boys in the past, it didn’t occur to me that I’d be asked to do my own. My career in media has officially begun.

Maybe I’ll get to the dizzying heights of Craig White and run my own weekly segment one day. Pully’s Plug I reckon I’ll call it.

It’s been great to see the club get off to a promising start. Getting early wins on the board is the best kind of feedback after a tough, smart and team-oriented pre-season. I was able to play in the first two games, but an unexpected (k)ankle injury kept me sidelined watching the boys play well again last week.

SWAN Districts and South Fremantle have both made encouraging starts to the 2015 WAFL season and that should lead to what looms as a fascinating battle at Steel Blue Oval on Saturday.

Swans started their season with a thumping 96-point win over Perth at home and then stormed home against East Perth in Round 2 before coming up 13 points short prior to the bye last week.

South Fremantle, meanwhile, has beaten West Perth, Perth and Claremont to start the season to remain the only unbeaten team left in the competition and to sit on top of the ladder.

The Bulldogs have now won eight straight matches dating back to winning the last five in 2014 as well, but there seems little doubt that the clash with Swans on Saturday at Bassendean is their biggest test of the new season to date.

CORY Dell'Olio was an excited and relieved man to be back playing last Good Friday night in South Fremantle's win over Claremont and now he only expects his form to pick up in coming weeks.

Dell'Olio had to sit out the first two games of the 2015 season but was right to resume playing when the AFL tribunal gave the Essendon players the all clear after the supplement saga that has carried on through the last two and-a-half years following the 2012 AFL season.

Dell'Olio has returned to South Fremantle in 2015 after three years with the Bombers where he played 16 AFL matches and now he has resumed his career with the Bulldogs where he previously played 58 games, kicked 109 goals and played in the 2009 premiership.

REIGNING South Fremantle fairest and best winner Haiden Schloithe is expected to miss approximately a month after injuring his ankle during the Good Friday victory over Claremont at Fremantle Oval.

Schloithe injured his ankle late in the 38-point win on Good Friday that leaves the Bulldogs on top of the WAFL ladder as the only unbeaten team left in the competition after three rounds.

Scans this week have shown that there is some ligament damage to the ankle, but no structural damage and no fracture.

That will mean that Schloithe is expected to miss around four matches of the season with his return expected either just before, or just after the WAFL's State match against South Australia at Lathlain Park on May 23.
