SOUTH Fremantle finished its 2014 WAFL season in style with a fifth successive victory thanks to a dominant final quarter at Fremantle Oval on Saturday to beat Peel Thunder by 30 points.

South Fremantle had beaten Peel also at Fremantle Oval by a point a month ago and it was a tight contest again for three quarters on Saturday before the Bulldogs piled on the last six goals of the match to run out 14.20 (104) to 10.14 (74) victors.

The win means that the Bulldogs have finished the 2014 season with five consecutive victories with two of them coming against the Thunder and the other three against finals teams – the second-placed Subiaco, third-placed East Fremantle and fourth-placed Swan Districts.

THERE is obviously a number of things I'm weighing up at the moment in regards to whether I play on or not next year. The way we are finishing the season with this momentum gives you a bit more motivation to think that something special might just be around the corner, and when you've been at the club for 10 or 11 years it is probably easy to go again.

I think the hard decision would be to pull the pin and I'm weighing up work commitments, wedding commitments and things like that next year off the field as well as my form, the new coach and what his vision is and what he sees my role being if he sees one for me at all. There's then also the pull from the playing group and not wanting to leave a young group who might not have enough leaders to guide them. Those are all the things I have to weigh up in the next few weeks.

ADAM Guglielmana is not getting too carried away with South Fremantle's strong finish to the 2014 WAFL season knowing that it means nothing unless built on next year and it is that level-headedness that could very well see him a future captain of the Bulldogs.

Following last Friday night's win over Subiaco at Fremantle Oval, South Fremantle has now won four straight matches heading into this Saturday's final round clash with Peel Thunder also at the port.

In those four wins over the past month, the Bulldogs have beaten the second-placed Subiaco, third-placed East Fremantle and fourth-placed Swan Districts, but that came on the back of South Fremantle losing six straight matches between Rounds 9 and 15.

NEW South Fremantle coach Todd Curley is excited by the playing group he is inheriting at the Bulldogs and sees the potential there to be a strong unit in 2015, but is fully aware that nothing is guaranteed and that only hard work will bring about success.

Curley was last week appointed as the new South Fremantle coach for the 2015 and 2016 WAFL seasons with the option of continuing in 2017 as well and the former Collingwood, Western Bulldogs and West Perth defender has every reason to like the look of the squad he will be in charge of.

The dual West Perth premiership player and 118-game AFL veteran who then coached the Falcons for three years before three seasons as an assistant with Fremantle has cast a keen eye over the South Fremantle team in the second half of the season.

WITH one round Qleft in the season, the South Fremantle's colts team heads into preparation for its fourth finals campaign in succession. This week they take on cellar dwellers Peel with some great form after laying to rest Subiaco’s last chance at playing in September last Saturday.

It was possibly the best performance by the colts side for 2014 on Saturday as they displayed some terrific team football. The game was just the tonic as we head toward the finals with renewed confidence.

The first quarter saw both sides exchange goals and some willingness to put the body on the line for the contested ball. Jacob Dragovich led the way with seven tackles and 29 disposals for the game.

SOUTH Fremantle continued its strong finish to the 2014 WAFL season having now won four straight matches with three wins over top-four teams in that period after the Bulldogs beat Subiaco by 14 points at Fremantle Oval on Friday night.

South Fremantle might not be a chance of playing finals in 2014 having won just 10 of its opening 13 matches of the season, but the Bulldogs after finishing Paul Hasleby's time as coach with plenty of momentum to give the incoming Todd Curley plenty to work with.

The Bulldogs kicked the only four goals of the first quarter on Friday night at Fremantle Oval and led by 29 points on two separate occasions during the match, and then responded to being challenged by the second-placed Subiaco to win 14.15 (99) to 12.13 (85).

SOUTH Fremantle looks to continue its winning streak this Friday night against Subiaco at Fremantle Oval with the Bulldogs looking to beat a finals bound opponent for the third time in a month.

South Fremantle might not be in the running to play finals in 2014, but the Bulldogs have now won three straight matches and even more impressively is the fact that two of those have come against the fourth-placed East Fremantle and third-placed Swan Districts.

That means that the Bulldogs enter Friday night's clash with the second-placed Subiaco full of confidence, but the Lions are guaranteed of a top-two finish this season and will be desperate to return to the winner's list ahead of the finals.

JARROD Pickett has made an immediate impact in his first three WAFL league matches with South Fremantle and that has only helped the recently-turned 18-year-old continue his charge to being a top AFL draft pick later this year.

While still 17 years of age, Pickett made his league debut with the Bulldogs in the Round 19 win in the derby over East Fremantle at East Fremantle Oval during which he kicked a goal with his first kick and booted two majors for the day.

He then had a quiet game for most of the day the next week against Peel Thunder at Fremantle Oval before turning on a simply stunning performance in the final 10 minutes of the game.

THE South Fremantle Football Club wishes to announce the appointment of Todd Curley as the new senior coach of our club for at least the next two WAFL seasons.

The South Fremantle Football Club and current senior coach Paul Hasleby both decided that he would not be seeking a renewal of his contract once the 2014 season expires and that opened the door for the Bulldogs to search for the best candidates to fill the chair for 2015 and beyond.

After an extensive nation-wide search and with the coaching selection panel headed up by South Fremantle great and West Coast Eagles premiership captain and coach John Worsfold, and dual South Fremantle premiership player and premiership captain David Gault, Curley was appointed to lead the Bulldogs back to glory and to finals for the first time since 2011.
