Show Preview
Minus Clayton Oliver, Melbourne will need to be at their best to beat a resurgent Fremantle at the MCG. Join The Roar for live scores from 2:10pm (AEST).
Oliver’s absence is set to test the Dees’ midfield brigade, and all of Christian Petracca, Jack Viney and the recalled James Harmes will face an almighty challenge against a red-hot Dockers on-ball brigade.
After a rough start to 2023, Freo seem to be back in business, having won three in a row including a superb victory against reigning premiers Geelong in Round 10. They beat the Dees on their own turf nearly 12 months ago to the day, and with Caleb Serong, Andrew Brayshaw and co. in fine form, they will be confident of a repeat performance.
Venue: MCG
First bounce: 2:10pm (AEST)
TV: Fox Footy
Streaming: Kayo Sports
Betting: Demons $1.35, Dockers $3.20 – odds via PlayUp
