Fremantle Dockers vs Gold Coast SUNS Preview
Fremantle returns home looking to extend its club-record winning streak when it hosts Gold Coast at Optus Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The Dockers remain the benchmark of the competition after winning 13 consecutive matches, and their latest victory may have been their most impressive. Trailing Geelong by 28 points during the second quarter, Fremantle produced another composed comeback to maintain its grip on top spot.
Luke Jackson starred with 28 disposals and three goals, further enhancing his credentials as a Brownlow Medal contender.
Gold Coast arrives under pressure after four straight defeats, with defensive issues proving particularly costly. The Suns have conceded at least 105 points in each of those losses and now face the AFL’s stingiest defensive unit.
There is also added intrigue given this is the first meeting between the clubs since Gold Coast’s stunning elimination final victory last season.
For Fremantle, it is an opportunity for both revenge and another statement win in a season rapidly gathering premiership momentum.
