The Fremantle derby (also historically known as the Port derby, pronounced /ˈdɜːrbiː/) is the Australian rules football rivalry match between the East Fremantle and the South Fremantle Football Club, two clubs competing in the West Australian Football League (WAFL). The rivalry developed from both clubs being based in Fremantle. There are usually three matches between the two clubsDerbies are traditionally one of the highest-attended home-and-away matches.
History
The East Fremantle and South Fremantle Football Clubs entered the West Australian Football Association (WAFA) in 1898 and 1900, respectively. Previous clubs based in Fremantle had included a first Fremantle Football Club (from 1885 to 1886), a second Fremantle Football Club (from 1886 to 1899), and Imperials (from 1895 to 1897). East and South Fremantle were considered successors of Imperials and the second Fremantle club, respectively. A third Fremantle-based club, North Fremantle, played in the competition from 1901 to 1915, and was based at North Fremantle Oval. The two other Fremantle teams were both played at Fremantle Oval until 1953.
