FREMANTLE REMAINED COMPOSED IN DEFENCE

Even in the second quarter where the momentum was going Collingwood’s way, the Fremantle defenders were able to stay composed and not let the magpies have too big of a lead going into the half time break.

This made it easier for the Dockers to convert and hit the lead in the second half.

Most of the last two minutes of the game was spent in Collingwood’s forward half but the Fremantle defenders were too good in applying the pressure and not letting Collingwood score what would have been the match winner.
