Fremantle Dockers vs West Coast Eagles Preview
Earlier in the year, the Eagles went against the odds and steamrolled their crosstown rivals, but now the tides have turned, and it seems unfathomable the Dockers could let it happen again.
The Eagles looked dejected against the Saints, some players barring any desirable level of effort and smashed around every contest.
The Dockers made light work of the Demons and have been dominant around the contests in recent weeks, bar their game against the Hawks.
The level of class is leaps and bounds above the Eagles, and with no conviction in their disposal, the Eagles dont make themselves competitive with their style.
Fremantles disposal efficiency leads the competition, and their shot efficiency also lands in the top five of the competition.
The Dockers lost the last contest with a lack of contested poise, and if theyre able to switch that around, there are no areas the Eagles will have an advantage in.
Turnovers need to improve for the Eagles to stand a chance, but with the Dockers on the hunt for some payback, and a top four spot looming, its non-negotiable.
