RYAN Cook took South Fremantle's slow start to the 2014 WAFL season to heart and called in the Bulldogs' last two captains to help inspire the group, and as a result he enjoyed Saturday's win over West Perth as much as anyone. Cook is now in his fourth season at South Fremantle and his third as captain following on from premiership skippers David Gault and Toby McGrath. The 26-year-old former Collingwood player of 14 AFL matches has certainly made his mark since arriving at South Fremantle in 2011 with two fairest and best awards under his belt, but another slow start to the season to open 2014 was the last thing he was hoping for, or expecting.

TERRIFIC recruiting, a stronger leadership group, better ball use and a forward-line more potent and that is kicking straight are all major reasons why Subiaco coach Jarrad Schofield has overseen an unbeaten start to the 2014 WAFL season for the Lions. Subiaco unexpectedly made the 2011 grand final before losing to Claremont but then struggled in 2012 winning just seven games, and then also struggled last year in Schofield's first year in charge winning just the six matches. However, everything is clicking so far in 2014 with Subiaco having recorded wins over South Fremantle, East Fremantle, Claremont and Peel Thunder to be sitting on top of the ladder as the last remaining undefeated team heading into the traditional Good Friday clash with East Perth.
