Fremantle Dockers vs Carlton Blues Preview
Fremantle’s finals hopes remain intact after results went their way in Round 15. Not only did the Dockers scrape a victory over Collingwood, but the next FIVE clubs above them (Essendon, GWS, Richmond, West Coast and Sydney) all lost. It saw shorten from $7.00 into $4.00 to make the Top 8 with Palmerbet. The importance of this clash, which they will welcome back dual Brownlow Medalist nat Fyfe for, is abundantly clear.
The Blues gave fans a rare chance to smile last week with an entertaining win over Adelaide. And there’s good reason to suggest they could double up this week; Carlton have won their last three against the Dockers, including a comfortable 45-point win in Round 3.
