AFL live scores: Fremantle Dockers come up against injury-depleted Port Adelaide

That’s where we’ll leave things after Fremantle’s 28-point comeback win over Port Adelaide.

Thanks for joining us!

Here’s the trend Fremantle need to fix before September, according to Glen Quartermain.

Once more, Fremantle have produced a stunning purple patch to blow an opposition away.

Meanwhile, Caleb Serong - who overcame a slow start to win 28 disposals - credited Fremantle’s improved stoppage work as the key to the comeback.

“We knew they were going to bring a lot of pressure and a lot of numbers at the footy, and we didn’t deal with it as well as we would’ve liked,” Serong told Fox Footy.

“You talk about them (stoppages) and then getting them back on your terms is another thing.

“I thought, the start of that third quarter, Luke Jackson really got us going in there. The big fella said at half-time ‘I’ve got this, get ready for it’. He really got going in that third quarter and gave us a lot of energy - that’s what we love. He got the game going our way.”

Jye Amiss, who slotted four goals, was happy with his side’s performance.

“It was a good win in the end. We thought, the way that we started, it probably wasn’t on our terms, and we had some things we really needed to get sorted,” Amiss told Fox Footy.

“I think, after half-time, we were able to play our brand of footy.

“I’m really starting to love the combat, that’s something I’m building into my game.

“That’s what I love about this football club - it’s so unselfish.”

Fremantle were not anywhere near their best, but have done enough to get over a brave Port Adelaide.

The Dockers trailed the Power - who were without Connor Rozee, Jason Horne-Francis, Zak Butters and Mitch Georgiades - by 12 points at the main break, but produced a trademark second-half blitz to win by 28.

FT: FRE 15.13 (103) def PA 11.9 (75)

Michael Frederick has slotted his second goal to ice the cake for Fremantle.

The speedy forward is having an underratedly-strong season.

Mitch Zadow very nearly produced a briilliant finish which would have made the finish interesting, only for the goal umpire’s view the ball had clipped the post to be confirmed by a review.

The Dockers would want to have their wits about them in the final few minutes.

Port Adelaide have had the ball trapped in their inside-50 for much of the last few minutes.

But repeat stoppages suit the Dockers, who look to have put the cue in the rack, just fine.

Jase Burgoyne has kicked one of the best goals of the day, getting a snap to work perfectly from the pocket.

Another quick goal for Port Adelaide might make things interesting.
