Ross Lyon has his sights set on the flag this year but he's the sort of bloke who loves to get feedback from the general public, good or bad. So if you really want to be a true supporter of the club, then make sure you shout stuff out to him at the ground and give him some pointers on how to get this coaching caper done. But before you do your duty as a member and hurl advice in the direction of professional coaching staff, make sure you know what you're talking about or they might just right you off as a nutjob and miss out on some choice advice. Work the board, move the magnets around and when you think you've got it sussed, start practising yelling "Hey Ross! Ross! Put Sandilands in the goal square for a rest!"

Numbers...you can't trust them. The Romans knew what numbers were up to and wouldn't have a bar of them. You can put your faith in a nice sturdy X but a 10, it's shifty. The only thing more iffy than a number is a statistic, they'll cut you open and rob you of your kidneys before you can say "aren't you supposed to drug me and put in a bath of ice first?". Unfortunately we're hooked on numbers though, we need them to work out how many kicks David Mundy had this week...and probably some other stuff too. The Dockerland Labs spent the summer pondering the problem and eventually, when the cricket was over, the fridge was empty and the clicker broke in everyone's pen, they came up with a solution - the stats cloud. A quick glance and you'll pretty much know everything about a game of football that there was to know, at least all the boring bits about it. The bigger the player's name, the more kicks, or marks, or tackles he had compared to his teammates.Â
Fremantle have always been a team that craves the big stage and with fans flocking from around the world to see Matthew Pavlich play game 300, they turned on the party tricks to humiliate Geelong, once again, and delight their hordes of supporters. The game opened with Matthew Pavlich slotting through a goal with a banana kick from the Matthew Pavlich stand, which was quite well received by the crowd, and continued with Fremantle slamming home 5 opening quarter goals to Geelong’s zero, including Matthew Pavlich’s 600th goal - again, quite well received. Once Fremantle had the Cats on the ropes, they kept pounding away, crushing their spirits with the traditional mid game strangle (not to be confused with Hayden Ballantyne mid-game dacking) before kicking on to win by a very tidy 32 points and rocket back up the ladder, poised to take back their spot in the top 4.
Have your say on how the Dockers players performed on the weekend by rating each player from zero to five or just pop in and have a look what everyone else had to say about the team.
