Essendon Bombers vs Fremantle Dockers Preview

Bloody tough game to predict here. Essendon are playing good footy for large parts of games but not long enough to get the wins.

Fremantle are just a bit hard to read entirely at the moment as well. In Melbourne I can see why Essendon are favourites.

I like Fremantle here though, their best footy has been pretty good and if they can show up and perform I think they’ll be able to roll the Bombers here.

Market Update: Money has come for Essendon all week but there has been a late rally for Fremantle.

The Dockers touched $2.32 with Sportsbet but are now back into $2.18. The Bombers have shortened into $1.69 after opening at $1.80.
