The weather was so bad that not even the promise of Matt deBoer selling purple bin liners for just five dollars could lure the Fremantle supporters out of their homes and into the Subiaco water torcher chamber yet the Dockers put on one of the shows of the season. Despite the rain getting so heavy in the first quarter that a family of pelicans were forced to take refuge in Nat Fyfe’s hair, Fremantle kicked one of their highest scores for the season so far; all while keeping Brisbane to the lowest score since anybody could be bothered to go back and check but presumably it involved a jumper with a koala on it. Freo had kept Brisbane to just one lucky point at half time before the entire Dockers backline decided there were better uses for the time and snuck out to see 22 Jump Street. Brisbane still only managed 3 goals in the second half which, based on the conditions, wouldn’t have been such a bad effort, if it hadn’t been for Fremantle kicking a lazy 15 goals and winning by 83 points.
