Gerrick Weedon has returned to Perth after three years in Derby and has been training with Claremont for the past two weeks in a bid to return to league football.

Fresh off a bye, Claremont will be looking to continue their positive start to the season when they face Perth at Lathlain Park on Saturday.

Footballers suffer a wide variety of injuries which keep them on the sidelines. But fresh ground was broken last week when a spider prevented Claremont’s promising teenage defender Harry Sinclair from taking part in any of the club’s three scratch matches against Peel Thunder at Rushton Park on Saturday.
The rusty-haired Scotch College graduate was laid low last week by a spider bite to his right elbow. His arm became red and swollen and he became feverish.
However, he recovered well enough to travel to Mandurah and helped out as a runner in the reserves practice match.
Claremont open their home-and-away season against East Perth at Medibank Stadium on Saturday afternoon, and will be looking for some early momentum as the team looks to build on its fifth-place finish from 2015.
Ironically, East Perth were responsible for ending Claremont’s season in last year’s elimination final, however, the Tigers have added some new faces for 2016.
Recruits Jye Bolton and Justin Speed have been in promising form over the pre-season as they look Read More [+]
