It’s about time the Western Derby became interesting once again.
For years, Fremantle have simply been levels below West Coast, and that has affected the quality of the most heated rivalry in the AFL.
The Eagles have won ten matches in a row against the Dockers with an average winning margin of 37.4 points, which dates back to Round 20, 2015. Only three of the last ten derbies have been decided by four goals or less.
