Show Preview
The first Saturday afternoon clash of the ‘new’ season sees the Brisbane Lions host the Fremantle Dockers at The Gabba. Join The Roar for live scores from 1:45pm (AEST).
Brisbane may have been last year’s fairytale team, but they suffered a straight-sets finals exit and then started 2020 off on a bad note with a 28-point loss to Hawthorn. Lachie Neale battled, but he didn’t have enough support in the midfield, while their defensive structure was cut to ribbons by a Hawks side who moved the ball from coast-to-coast with startling ease.
Freo, on the other hand, will be ruing what could have been after their ferocious fourth-quarter fightback against Essendon fell agonisingly short. Nat Fyfe and Michael Walters were their usual selves, while Sam Sturt starred on debut with three goals, but it wasn’t enough.
The Dockers claimed a thrilling one-point win in the only meeting between these sides last year. The Lions won the previous two meetings by nine goals, but Freo took the last nine meetings prior to that.
