Are the Fremantle Dockers the real deal? ⚓
If you needed any more proof that Fremantle is a legitimate premiership threat this season, look no further than what went down at the Gabba in Round 12. After dropping their Round 1 match against the Cats, the Dockers have been on an absolute tear, rattling off an incredible winning streak.
In this episode, we break down Fremantle's emphatic 25-point victory over the reigning premiers on their own home deck. While the Lions managed to close the gap in the fourth quarter, Freo completely dictated the game early on, stretching their lead to as much as 50 points.
We dive into:
The Lions' Woes: Brisbane is battling a brutal injury list—including the absence of Ryan Lester and Dane Zorko—and their defensive pressure completely evaporated, allowing Freo to play on their own terms.
Freo's Firepower: Jye Amiss and Patrick Voss were absolutely outstanding, bagging 4 goals apiece.
Midfield Dominance: Andrew Brayshaw and Jordan Clark continue to blitz through the middle.
Incredible Depth: Fremantle's roster is starting to look less like a footy team and more like a magician's hat—they just keep pulling talent out of nowhere!
What did you think of the match? Can the Lions turn things around, or are the Dockers destined for the Grand Final? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
