Sharks to represent WA at State Level

Three East Fremantle players will play for the WA State team against Victoria on Saturday in Northam.  Steven Dodd, Rory O’Brien and Andrew Stephen will once again pull on the yellow and black guernsey. All three players have represented at State level before, Dodd and Stephen in 2012, while Rory played in 2011. You can support the boys by heading to Northam for tomorrow’s game. Bounce Down is at midday. The game will also be shown on ABC TV in a delayed telecast from 2pm.

We're proud to have a total of 20 East Fremantle players in state squads, a great testament to our strong district and development program:

 Steven Dodd

-          2013 will be Steven’s 3^rd state game after selection in 2004 and 2012

-          The reigning Lynn Medallist, who will hopefully play his 100^th League match for the Sharks in 2013, will play as the third tall, versatile defender that he does so well for EFFC.
