Term 2, Week 1


Hello everyone and welcome back to Term 2.

I hope everyone enjoyed their break. If you didn’t have your head under a rock over the past two weeks, you would have seen the mighty Fremantle Dockers win 2 games in row and currently sit second on the ladder. There is a loooonnnngg way to go in terms of the season’s length, but it feels good to see the boys standing up!!
