The West Australian Football Commission has been advised by the Fremantle Football Club’s Chairman that the employment of CEO Steve Rosich and Coach Ross Lyon has ceased.

The WAFC was notified of this decision earlier today however the final decision did not require endorsement from the WAFC and has been made by the Fremantle Football Club’s Board of Directors at its sole discretion under its constitutional rights and agreements with the WAFC.

This is an important decision for the Club as it begins setting a new course for its future and the WAFC will offer its continued support to the FFC Board throughout the process.

The WAFC thanks Steve Rosich and Ross Lyon for their contribution to Fremantle Football Club and the WA Football community and wishes them both every success with their future endeavours.
