Fremantle Dockers captain: Alex Pearce named as Nat Fyfe’s successor

Alex Pearce says he’s “incredibly humbled and proud” to be named Fremantle’s new skipper, with the popular defender getting the tick of approval from teammates to take over the top job.

Caleb Serong and Andrew Brayshaw will serve as dual vice-captains for the Dockers’ revamped leadership group, with the trio set to have their first taste of leading in their new roles in Friday’s pre-season clash against Adelaide.
