Fremantle Dockers vs West Coast Eagles Preview
This is easily the biggest edition of the Derby in years.
Fremantle can just about end West Coast’s season and keep their finals hopes alive if they were able to topple the Eagles on Sunday.
Streaks are meant to be broken, and while West Coast has won each of its last 11 matches against Fremantle, it’s time for the Dockers to finally notch up a win over their bitter arch-rival here.
Despite a free-flowing frantic storm-interrupted finish in last week’s match against Melbourne that we saw the Eagles play they have very much been a waste of space in an otherwise competitive top eight.
David Mundy will break the Freo club games record in game 353 this Sunday, taking over from the great Matthew Pavlich, Freo can keep their finals hopes alive and ruin West Coast’s season.
It’s a multi that Dockers fans dream of and it can come true on Sunday arvo.
Take the Dockers at the $3 on offer.
