History will soon forget the events that unfolded in the 2013 grand final, as they become but a footnote in the early days of what will become known as the Fremantle Dynasty but that doesn't make it suck any less. Freo headed over to Melbourne with high hopes but struggled with the local conditions in the first half. Down by 23 points at half time, they made good use of Hawthorn's brown shorts, dominating the centre square and getting within 3 points to look the best of good things by three quarter time. Unfortunately they lacked a the needed polish to finish the job and went down by 15 points to finish as the second best team in the country.
