Fremantle Dockers vs Brisbane Lions Preview
This is a MUST WIN game for the mighty Brisbane Lions (proudly sponsored by Neds)
Despite an eight-goal last quarter, it was too little too late after a poor first-half showing against Hawthorn in Tassie last week.
Brisbane, currently 6th on the ladder, desperately needs to get the win over in Perth if they want to maintain their top-four aspirations.
Playing a Freo outfit who currently sit in eighth spot and is full of confidence after beating the Tigers in a close one won’t be easy.
The Lions open the betting as $1.52 head-to-head favorites but they should very much be an underdog based on recent form.
Fages knows the Lions need four good, solid quarters of football to get the win, especially in Perth.
It won’t be easy but this team is too good not to allow another loss like last week.
Take the Brisbane Lions (proudly sponsored by Neds) at the 1-39 margin and let’s back our boys back on the winner’s list.
