Fremantle Dockers coach Justin Longmuir praises Sean Darcy's ... (The West Australian)

Fremantle ruckman Sean Darcy's unanimous Glendinning-Allan Medal performance in Saturday night's western derby was based not only on his dominance but his ...

I’m proud of his efforts after he got injured, to halve some contests and remain in the game to keep working his way through it. Even though the tackle numbers were heavily towards their way, I thought our pressure (was good) and we stuck at it really well. So I think we took a step forward with dealing with wet weather.” It was nice to get over the line. “I think he’s starting to get a bit of his marking back. He looks really confident in aerial contests again and backing himself and getting around the ground well.

Fremantle Dockers' top four hopes rest on Carlton, St Kilda causing ... (The West Australian)

Fremantle's top four hopes not only rest in their own hands but Carlton and Sydney's as well as the home-and-away season's climactic final round becomes ...

Carlton came within seconds of knocking off second-placed Melbourne on Saturday night, while Collingwood’s winning streak was ended at the hands of Sydney with a 27-point loss on Sunday. Fremantle are guaranteed a home final as they can now finish no lower than sixth. The Demons and Lions face each other on Friday night, with the Dockers simply needing to avoid that result finishing as a draw. Should the Dockers fail to earn a top-four seed, it is likely they will host one of the Tigers, Blues or Bulldogs in a cut-throat elimination final at Optus Stadium in week one of the finals. Carlton are considered a $2.01 outsider with Ladbrokes to defeat Collingwood, with the Blues most likely needing to prevail to take the final spot in the top eight. The Dockers will be relying on either Carlton or St Kilda to produce an underdog victory against Collingwood or Sydney respectively on the regular season’s final day - but first must also take care of Greater Western Sydney in their clash in Canberra on Saturday afternoon.

“It’s been a great honour to lead the boys out. “I had some adrenaline going and got a big piece of it. “It’s tough to perform when you can’t string together games and training. “At times it’s been a struggle. It demands a bit more in the lead-up and dealing with a bit more pressure,” he said. I’ve been quite sore and it’s been tough to get up.
