Show Preview
The Melbourne Demons desperately need a win to keep their finals hopes alive, but standing in their way are the tenacious Fremantle Dockers. Join The Roar for live scores from 7:10pm (AEST).
Seemingly flying high on their way to a surprising return to the finals, Melbourne dropped the ball big time last week in a shocking upset loss to the Sydney Swans. The Demons looked off the pace and disinterested for large stretches and then ruined a late charge with woeful goalkicking and miserable defensive errors.
The Dockers, on the other hand, have just started to fall away over the last fortnight after what’s been an otherwise encouraging 2020 campaign. They were right with the Tigers at three-quarter time in their last match, but got rolled in the last quarter to lose by 27. They’ll be hoping to get another win on the board before the season’s out.
Melbourne have won their last two matches against Freo and three of their last four, but had lost seven in a row by an average of 66 points prior to that.
