Fremantle Dockers vs Sydney Swans Preview
Fremantle heads into a pivotal match following a tough defeat to Geelong, which highlighted their defensive weaknesses. The Dockers struggled under pressure and with turnovers, making it difficult to generate attacking momentum. Meanwhile, Sydney, despite an 0-2 start, has been competitive and will aim to spark their forward line. Playing in Perth is always a challenge, but the Swans seem close to clicking. Given Fremantle’s struggles and Sydney’s determination, expect the Swans to cover the line in what promises to be a closely contested game.
