Guglielmana reaches 100 in career-best form but craves finals

Thursday, June 18, 2015 - 10:11 PM - by Chris Pike

ADAM Guglielmana couldn’t possibly be in better form as a small defender entering his 100th WAFL game this Saturday against West Perth at Joondalup's HBF Arena but what he desperately wants is to experience finals football for the first time in his career.

Guglielmana originally joined South Fremantle to play colts from Carnarvon in 2007 and after a lengthy apprenticeship behind a successful league team, and some injuries along the way, it's been a long journey to the 100 games.

And it's only been in the last season and-a-half where he's settled into a role as a small defender after spending the majority of his career previously as a hard running midfielder and wingman, and dangerous half-forward.

Bulldogs fight hard but can't finish job against Lions

Sunday, June 14, 2015 - 2:01 AM - by Chris Pike

SOUTH Fremantle never stopped trying and did bounce back from a slow start against the league-leading reigning premiers Subiaco at Medibank Stadium on Saturday, but in the finish just wasn’t clean enough in an eventual 22-point defeat.

Subiaco now sits three games clear on top of the WAFL ladder and has won seven straight matches after beating South Fremantle 9.12 (66) to 6.8 (44).

The Lions kicked the last three goals of the first quarter to open up a handy lead that the Bulldogs made up with the first three goals of the second quarter. But when Subiaco kicked the first two goals of a low-scoring second half, it was enough to sew up the victory.

South Fremantle certainly never gave up on the contest, but just couldn’t hit its targets around the ground or in front of goal well enough to seriously threaten Subiaco in the second half.

Catch up on all 11 Whitey's Whispers episodes

Friday, June 12, 2015 - 9:59 PM - by Chris Pike

WHITEY'S Whispers took a break this week to celebrate the return of Craig White to the South Fremantle league side in Saturday's win over Perth so we took the chance to look back on the first 11 episodes this season of the show that has taken the WAFL world by storm in 2015.

The dual premiership veteran has been the host of 11 episodes now of his popular weekly program out of Fremantle Oval.

It all started back in Round 1 when Shaun Bewick looked ahead to taking on his former team to start the season before Haiden Schloithe then took the chance to hit back on that controversial first show heading into the Round 2 win over Perth.

Round 3 then saw the most thoughtful and innovative episode yet when big man Brock Higgins spilled the beans on some ideas he believes could change the world.

Round 12 Preview v Subiaco

Friday, June 12, 2015 - 3:27 PM - by Chris Pike

SOUTH Fremantle is looking for a third straight win and to move into second spot on the WAFL ladder taking on the on-fire league-leading reigning premiers Subiaco at Medibank Stadium on Saturday.

The Bulldogs' clash with the Lions is the standalone WAFL fixture on Saturday afternoon and it presents a big opportunity for South Fremantle to send a message to the rest of the competition that it is the real deal this season.

South Fremantle is now on a two-game winning streak and could make it three on Saturday which would see the Bulldogs move into second spot on the ladder and to end the Lions' six-game winning streak, but it's certainly not going to be an easy task.

Pullman, Verrier grab chances presented through injury

Thursday, June 11, 2015 - 5:00 PM - by Chris Pike

SOUTH Fremantle might not have had a lot of injuries in 2015 in terms of numbers, but they have come to key players and that has opened up opportunities for others with a host of players stepping up including Josh Pullman and Steven Verrier in Saturday's win over Perth.

The Bulldogs might have only had four players missing out of what might be considered their best 22 in last Saturday's clash with the Demons at Fremantle Oval, but all of them are important players and needed others to stand up in their absence.

Full-forward and two-time Bernie Naylor Medal winner Ben Saunders made his return from an ankle injury in the reserves on Saturday, but after kicking two early goals he injured a hamstring and now will be sidelined again for several more weeks.

Bulldogs defy short break to run over top of Demons

Sunday, June 7, 2015 - 8:36 PM - by Chris Pike

SOUTH Fremantle showed that backing up Monday's derby win was no concern on a short break with the Bulldogs booting seven goals to one in a scintillating final quarter to beat Perth by 38 points at Fremantle Oval on Saturday.

The Bulldogs put in a terrific performance on Monday to win the WA Day Foundation Derby over East Fremantle, but backing up five days later against a Perth outfit with a seven-day break was never going to be an easy task.

And it was a tight contest for three quarters with South Fremantle only leading by one straight kick at three quarter-time, but the Bulldogs then ran rampant in the fourth quarter with seven goals to one to end up winning 17.10 (112) to 11.8 (74).

Round 11 Preview v Perth

Friday, June 5, 2015 - 3:52 PM - by Chris Pike

SOUTH Fremantle scored a tremendous win on Monday in the WA Day Foundation Derby but now are looking to back it up just five days later at Fremantle Oval against Perth on Saturday.

While that was a tremendous win for the Bulldogs and saw them improve to a 5-4 record to maintain a position inside the top-five, there is sure to still be some sore bodies as a result of it heading into this Saturday's clash with Perth at Fremantle Oval.

Perth can also take some confidence out of having beaten South Fremantle on its last trip to Fremantle Oval, but that was way back in Round 2 last year in what was Kris Miller's 300th WAFL game.

That might be good memories for those Perth players who played, but at most there will be just six players from that team still in the line-up this Saturday.
