Fremantle will make it six wins in succession when they take on St Kilda in AFL Round 16. 

The Dockers had a shocker the last time these two sides met, which was as recently as Round 8. They lost the following week against Collingwood but have been risers since then and come off a comfortable 41-point victory over Essendon in Round 15. 

St Kilda were no match for Collingwood on the same weekend, dropping that encounter by 34 points. They sit in 15th spot on the ladder with a 5-9 record, while Fremantle are 6th and 9-5. 

Look for the Dockers tight defence to restrict St Kilda here, while Luke Jackson, Caleb Serong and Andrew Brayshaw should provide an edge at the clearances, setting up scoring opportunities for their forwards. 

Take Jordan Clark to hit the 25+ disposal mark, while the total match points under looks to be in play as does the 1-39 point margin for the home side. St Kilda’s Jack Sinclair can bounce back from a quiet match last weekend. 

  • The Dockers rank 2nd in the competition for fewest points conceded in the past five matches, giving up just 61 points per game
  • Jordan Clark has averaged over 25 disposals in his past four matches against the Saints. 
  • Jack Sinclair has had 25+ disposals in five of his past six matches
  • Six of Fremantle’s nine wins this year have been between 1-39 points

Head to Head
