AFL: Fremantle are chasing a sixth straight win as they host a Carlton side under massive pressure on and off the field in their showpiece Len Hall Tribute game.

The Dockers are unchanged from last week’s crushing western derby victory, while they will take on a familiar face as ex-Docker Liam Reidy leads the ruck duties for the Blues.

Carlton have a late out chossing to manage Ollie Hollands after a tough week for the entire Hollands family.

Fremantle are heavy favourites and you’d expect Carlton will need something special to cause an upset though they do possess a strong record at Optus Stadium.

McGovern has another

Another defensive free kick given away as Luke Ryan is adjudged to have blocked McGovern out of the contest.

It’s a very soft call but the margin is back to eight points.

Freo fans lend a hand

Caleb Serong has rare off moment as he sends an attempted kick forward sailing into the stands.

It’s a Carlton free but the Dockers supporters in the stand throws the ball as far away as he can from the Blues who half to go retreive it.

Kemp has three

Brennan Cox is done for a downfield free kick for holding Kemp in the goal square.

Once again just as Fremantle threaten to get away the Blues find a way to hold on.

Sonny Walters takes up new WA footy role.

The Fremantle legend is looking to inspire the next generation.

End-to-end footy from Freo!

Deep in the forward pocket and the Dockers recycle the ball out and the dump kick hits Wagner.

He goes aggressive to Dudley who shakes off a tackle and hits Frederick and Amiss is alone in the goal square to get his third.

Blues hit back

Liam Reidy with a rare win out of the middle and he goes deep inside 50 and the Dockers spoil into space where Francis Evans collects and snaps nearly over his head.

A smart finish.

Three for Treacy

Luke Jackson lays a big tacke in the middle and Shai Bolton takes advantage and goes for Treacy who outmarks Weitering 25m out from goal.

He’s not missing from there.

Kemp keeps the Blues in touch

McGovern has a shot from just inside 50 and it floats across the face but Kemp jumps over Brennan Cox’s attempted spoil to take the mark and he snaps his second to get the margin back to 13.

Amiss kicks a goal that confuses everyone

Josh Treacy shows great forward pressure to turn the ball over and hit Amiss in the pocket.

He snaps and it looks like it’s floating across but it swings back late and the umpire calls it a goal.

Bizarre finish but Amiss has two.

Luke Jackson with a stunner

Wins the tap than roves his own work to receive the handball from Serong and he bursts away.

On the run from just outside 50m he launches, and it sails through for a magnificent goal.
