Show Preview
The first Saturday afternoon of the AFL season begins as the Essendon Bombers host the Fremantle Dockers at Marvel Stadium. Keep up to date with live scores on The Roar from 2:10pm (AEDT).
Essendon will be looking for improvement after a finals appearance last season that barely rated a mention. They’ll start warm favourites over a Fremantle side under first-year coach Justin Longmuir.
The Dockers haven’t defeated the Bombers at Marvel Stadium since 2010 and, although they’ve only played three games at the venue since, boast an appalling 2-14 record lifetime record against the Dons in Victoria.
Bounce: 2:10pm (AEDT)
Venue: Marvel Stadium, Melbourne
TV: Fox Footy, Seven (WA only)
Online: Kayo Sports, Foxtel GO, AFL Live Pass
Head-to-head: Essendon 22, Fremantle 14
Last five: Essendon 4, Fremantle 1
Odds: Essendon $1.45, Fremantle $3.69
