Qualifying Finals Preview Claremont vs. South Fremantle

By Dan Scamozzi

Claremont’s Colts and Reserves face South Fremantle in the Qualifying Finals at Fremantle Community Bank Oval on Saturday after the Tigers finished second on the ladder in both grades with 15-5 records.

A win for Claremont’s Colts would mean consecutive victories and set up a meeting with Perth in the 2nd Semi Final, while the Reserves will be looking to end a two-game losing streak and face East Perth in the 2nd Semi Final should they do so.

Claremont’s Colts are ranked No.1 in both attack and defence and finished the home-and-away season with the highest percentage (169.29).

Meanwhile, Claremont’s Reserves produced an 11-game winning streak between rounds 9-21 in what is Kepler Bradley’s first season as coach.

The club encourages all Claremont members and fans to attend the game and cheer on the mighty Tigers in both grades!

Bounce down for Colts is 8.55am, followed by Reserves at 11.25am.
