New Fremantle skipper Nat Fyfe admits he couldn’t help but feel a tad jealous of Patrick Dangerfield as the Geelong star ran rampant on the way to last year’s Brownlow Medal.

Fyfe, the 2015 Brownlow medallist, played just five games last season before he broke his leg for a second time.

The 25-year-old says he’s looking forward to taking on Dangerfield in Fremantle’s season opener against the Cats in Perth on March 26.
