Fremantle Dockers vs Melbourne Demons Preview
Huge game coming up on Friday night with Fremantle hosting Melbourne at Optus Stadium.
Fremantle are coming off a draw against Richmond last week and will no doubt be eager to improve at home.
Melbourne went down the the Western Bulldogs and now sit a game and percentage off the top spot on the ladder.
So with plenty to play for who wins? Fremantle will take plenty of confidence from when they last met Melbourne, scoring a massive upset win at the MCG. I think Melbourne can respond with a win here though. Should be a great match.
