Fremantle Dockers vs Collingwood Magpies Prediction, Preview, Team News and More: AFL Round 11, 2024

The Fremantle Dockers will face the Collingwood Magpies this Friday at Optus Stadium as they attempt to break into the top eight. The Dockers returned to the winner’s circle last round against St Kilda. This was a low-scoring match but Fremantle were able to walk away with a 78-74 victory.

Despite winning the game, Fremantle put on a worrying display, especially when they attempted to score. Their accuracy in front of the goal seemed off with nine goals and 18 behinds. However, their defense was on point and a little too strong for the Saints.

The Magpies, on the other hand, are on an incredible run. They lost their first three games of the season but are unbeaten since then, winning seven games and drawing with Essendon in their ANZAC Day match.

Their last game against the Crows was another victory for the Magpies, though it was a hard-earned victory. The Crows turned up the heat in the second half of the match, almost costing the Pies their early lead. Fortunately for the Magpies, Jordan De Goey secured the lead for his team, effectively winning the match.

This Friday, we expect the match to be challenging for both sides and we’ll likely see another low-scoring game.
