Fremantle Dockers head to finals despite loss to Carlton
The Fremantle Dockers concluded their regular season with a 37-point loss to Carlton, conceding 118 points. Despite this defeat, the team enters the finals as favorites after a historic season that included a second minor premiership and a record 14-game winning streak.
However, the Dockers face injury concerns as Brennan Cox is expected to miss their first finals match due to a calf injury. Meanwhile, the West Coast Eagles ended their 2026 campaign with an eleventh consecutive loss following a defeat by the Hawks. Additionally, Harley Reid faces potential disciplinary scrutiny regarding a sling tackle.
