  South Fremantle
South Fremantle's 1918 campaign ended on a demoralising note with a 65 point semi final loss to East Perth, and this defeat signalled the onset of a frustrating twenty nine year run during which the club were consistently 'thereabouts' but never 'there'.
South Fremantle's record during the under age competition which the WANFL conducted from 1942-44 was poor (6th out of 7 clubs in 1942, and last of 8 in both the following seasons) and did not engender confidence for the resumption of the 'real stuff' in 1945.
Nevertheless, over the course of the entire season South Fremantle had clearly been the dominant side in the competition, as was evidenced by the fact that, in addition to the premiership, the club provided both the top goalkicker in the shape of Naylor and the Sandover Medallist in the person of Clive Lewington.

Club captain in 1954 and 1955 (his last season), Treasure's "relaxed style earned him the humorous-affectionate nickname of 'Loafer', but many opponents found to their cost that his sometimes leisurely attitude cloaked a precision of movement" (see footnote 13).

FREMANTLE Mayor Peter Tagliaferri has urged against the merger of East Fremantle and South Fremantle football clubs in any mooted WAFL review.

“Fremantle Oval was actually East Fremantle’s home ground until 1953 and having two strong clubs with loyal supporters based in the port city is a sound opportunity to re-invigorate the WAFL game here without throwing tradition to wind,” he said.

 Australian Rules Football: Point Me To It!!!
Australian football, which is also known as Australian Rules Football, or less formally as "Aussie Rules" or simply as "Footy" is a code of football which originated in Melbourne, Australia.
The game is also distinguished from other games by the fast, relatively free movement of the ball (partly due to the absence of an offside rule) and the awarding of a free kick for any clean catch — known as a mark — of a ball which has been kicked more than 15 meters.
Although it is a winter sport, pre-season competitions usually begin in late February (that is, in the Australian summer); the football season proper is from March to August, with finals being held in September.
