Sydney Swans vs Fremantle Dockers Preview
A pair of last year’s finals contenders square off on Saturday with plenty at stake.
Sydney’s fall from grace now sees the Swans sitting 11th on the ladder following a third-straight loss to the Pies last week, while the Dockers occupy the 12th spot on the ladder coming off a bounce-back win over the Hawks.
The Swans were arguably the better side for three quarters against the premiership favourites, but after struggling for accuracy in front of goal, Sydney managed only one goal to Collingwood’s five in the final term.
It’s tough to read too much into a win against the wooden spoon favourite, but the Dockers appeared more polished through the middle of the field last week, led by a monster game from Andrew Brayshaw and a handful of goals from Michael Frederick and Jye Amiss.
Not surprising for two defensive-minded sides, low-scoring battles have been the norm between these two teams in recent times.
The Under has saluted in their last two meetings, and with the Swans doing their best to avoid kicking goals last week, another stalemate could be on the cards.
