Fremantle's heavy loss won't determine their season
Fremantle forward Michael Frederick stated that the team's heavy loss to Geelong in round one will not determine their season. The Dockers lost by 78 points, struggling to respond after a poor start. Frederick noted that the team failed to match Geelong's intensity early on, leading to a significant deficit. Although they showed improvement in the third quarter, it was not enough to change the outcome. Looking ahead, Fremantle will face Sydney in their first home game. Frederick expressed confidence that the team can perform better, especially if they replicate their strong third-quarter effort.
