In 1995, the Fremantle Football Club was the second Western Australian team to enter the Australian Football League after the West Coast Eagles. Nicknamed the ' Dockers' their home ground is Patersons Stadium (formerly Subiaco Oval) in Perth and club colours are purple and white.
Fremantle have struggled over the years to make an impact in the AFL and 2003 was the first and only year that the Dockers played in the finals. The club is rebuilding a young and exciting group of players for the future, and with players of the ilk of Matthew Pavlich at the helm they are planning for success.
Fremantle Dockers in 2011
Fremantle were in the eight for most of the season but a spate of injuries to key players such as Aaron Sandilands and David Mundy, along with the recovery of Michael Barlow and Roger Hayden made the Dockers task a hard one. The emergence of Nathan Fyfe was a highlight for Fremantle in a tough year.
In an end of season shock to the AFL fraternity Fremantle sacked coach Mark Harvey and replaced with St Kilda coach Ross Lyon who quit the saints very unexpectedly.
