Western Bulldogs v Fremantle, Marvel Stadium

It’s almost season on the line time for the Bulldogs, who were impressive before last week’s
defeat to the Brisbane Lions. Still without gun forwards Aaron Naughton, Sam Darcy and
Cody Weightman, the Bulldogs’ star-studded midfield can only do so much. Bulldogs
superstar Marcus Bontempelli received a hard tag against the Lions, blunting his influence in
the midfield and forcing him to go forward instead. Fremantle are coming off the bye, buoyed
by their stunning demolition of Melbourne in the Alice Springs a fortnight ago. The Dockers
showed then their attacking output and forward line function is improving, matching their
rock-solid defence and young midfield.

TIP: Fremantle by 16 points, Andrew Brayshaw to have 25 or more possessions
