Fremantle Dockers

Fremantle coach Justin Longmuir praised his defensive unit's 'fierce determination and commitment' as the Dockers conceded their second-lowest full-length ...

Our leaders led that really, really well because it was different early in the week. That showed in the first quarter. But Longmuir said defenders Alex Pearce and Luke Ryan would be fit despite limping at different stages of the match. Longmuir said he was proud of how they stayed focused given the distractions they were facing. Fremantle had 67 inside 50s and held the Roos to only 32. Excluding 2020 when game time was reduced, it was the second-lowest score Fremantle has ever conceded.

Backline pair Hayden Young and Heath Chapman (12 intercepts) returned from their stints in health and safety protocols seamlessly, while Luke Ryan held firm throughout with eight marks and 14 disposals. Fremantle's stingy defence claimed another scalp, restricting North to only three goals for the game. North Melbourne: McKay (knee) North Melbourne: Jack Mahony (replaced Ben McKay at three-quarter time) Amiss out-bodied seasoned defender Aidan Corr for his chance, slotting home from 40m out straight in front. The 18-year-old, who had kicked nine goals in his past three WAFL games, had three score involvements in the first quarter, before a crafty dribbler helped set up Brennan Cox's second-term goal, aided by Nathan O'Driscoll's sharp work on the line.

McKay was in huge pain while he was assessed on the bench, and he’s set to be sent off for scans to determine the extent of the damage. A spectacular mark-of-the-year contender from Cameron Zurhaar early in the second quarter got North Melbourne on the goalsheet as the visitors launched the briefest of fightbacks. The final inside 50m stat read 67-32 in favour of Fremantle, with North Melbourne held to just two goals for most of the match before kicking their third with under five minutes remaining.

Fremantle is flying high after running all over the top of a hapless North Melbourne.

Backline pair Hayden Young and Heath Chapman (12 intercepts) returned from their stints in health and safety protocols seamlessly, while Luke Ryan held firm throughout with eight marks and 14 disposals. North's final total of 3.6 (24) was the club's equal ninth lowest in their history, with the club low happening in 2019 when they managed only 1.8 (14) away to Geelong. North have also conceded 100+ points in five of its past six games. The result condemns North to six straight losses, languishing in second-last with a 1-7 record having lost by margins of 78, 50, 60 and 68 points over the past four weeks. Fremantle's stingy defence claimed another scalp, restricting North to only three goals for the game. Thirty games into David Noble's reign, the Kangaroos have only managed five wins with 25 losses. Amiss out-bodied seasoned defender Aidan Corr for his chance, slotting home from 40m out straight in front.

Internally, the club would surely be disappointed they couldn't make it one win further to the grand final, but their effort to make it to the prelim shouldn't be overlooked. The Fremantle were one of the surprise packets in 2022. Key players stood up when they were needed, debutants played their role excellently and their stars continued to shine. Across her 11 games, the former basketballer also managed two goals, including one in the qualifying final against North Melbourne. Overall, it's hard to find many major faults with a team that played as well as Fremantle did for most of the season, with some lapses in consistency and minor depth issues being the most of their worries outside of the looming expansion threat, next season should be a good one. Fremantle hardly put a foot wrong in the early moments of the season, dominating their opponents in their opening three matches, and it had a lot to do with the pressure they were applying, particularly in the forward line, leading to some high scoring footy and blowout margins.

Fremantle have overcome the loss of six players to COVID protocols to post a huge win over North Melbourne in Perth.

For McKay however, it would be a bitter blow if he is to miss a stretch. Three goals in time on to Switkowski, Jordan Clark and Amiss helped the hosts out to a 64-point lead at the last change. After North successfully fought to contain the hosts for much of the second term, Michael Walters snapped two in time on, and pushed the margin out to 38. Ruck recruit Callum Coleman-Jones then reeled the margin back to three goals with a snap over his shoulder, having won a free kick for holding the man in the pocket. Pressure forward Sam Switkowski ran down Todd Goldstein and kicked truly to set the tone for Fremantle in the first three minutes. Justin Longmuir's team established a healthy early lead, and the closest the Roos got from then on was 19 points early in the second quarter.
