I HAVE been fortunate enough to play in some great forward-lines in my career so far, and I’m a big fan of the squad of forwards we have now at both senior and reserves levels at South Fremantle.

A common theme amongst the successful forward-lines at most higher tiers of footy seems to be the old adage of a team-first mentality.
 
Although fostering a genuine, consistent team-first mentality sounds simple on paper, it’s actually a tough mindset to instil and maintain in players in a highly competitive environment. This is especially true amongst forward lines, whose job it is to individually contribute and collectively produce goals in order to hold their spot in a side. Read More [+]

WITH South Fremantle having the bye this week, we thought we would take this chance to take a look back on the show that has taken the football world by storm so far in 2015 - Whitey's Whispers.

Dual premiership Bulldogs veteran Craig White has been the host of seven 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.

SOUTH Fremantle returned to the winner's list on Saturday with an impressive 13-point victory over East Perth largely on the back of a five-goal to nil third quarter.

The Bulldogs had their chances to open up a handy lead during the first half as well, but only managed to head into half-time with 4.11 on the board, but on the back of five goals to nil in the third quarter they ended up beating the Royals 11.16 (82) to 10.9 (69) at Medibank Stadium.

South Fremantle came into the game having lost its last three matches on the back of winning the opening three games of the year, and also had just a five-day break following Monday's Anzac Derby loss to East Fremantle.

OBVIOUSLY getting dropped is never the easiest thing to take, but I have just focused on going back trying to play the best I can and offering some leadership, and following the lead from guys like Red and Gumby to try and get back in the ones as quickly as I can.

Obviously with the longer week we trained Saturday morning before playing on Monday, and Toddy just came up to me and had a chat, and said that there's a few things I need to address moving forward and he thought it was in with the best interests of the team that I had a run in the twos. No one's bigger than the footy clubs and if that's his decision that's his decision, unfortunately both teams didn’t go too well on the weekend against East Fremantle.

I had wrist surgery over summer so that inhibited my pre-season a little bit so my touch was a little bit off and confidence was a little bit down. That was the main reason the main reason I was given, it wasn’t so much that one game against Subi but the form over the whole season. Obviously I would like to be in the ones but that's how it rolls.

SOUTH Fremantle heads to Medibank Stadium on Saturday to take on the WAFL grand finalists of the last two years East Perth with the Bulldogs needing to bounce back from three successive losses entering next week's bye.

South Fremantle has now lost three straight matches after opening the season with impressive wins over West Perth, Perth and Claremont.

The Bulldogs have since suffered losses to Swan Districts, Subiaco and East Fremantle to now be searching for that winning form again.

SOUTH Fremantle players Ryan Cook, Marlon Pickett, Ashton Hams, Ben Saunders and Blayne Wilson have all been named in the WAFL State squad to play South Australia at Lathlain Park on Saturday May 23.

The initial squad of 36 players has been announced and that includes the five South Fremantle players who have all made strong starts to the 2015 WAFL season.

Cook, Hams and Saunders were all part of the WAFL team that beat the NEAFL in Sydney last year and all were among the best players with Hams coming away with the Simpson Medal, but Cook not being far behind and Saunders booting five goals.
