Match report: Potent Crows make wasteful Dockers pay
April 30, 2016 4:39 PM
FREMANTLE now holds the unwanted title as football's greatest slider, having lost its sixth-straight game, this time to Adelaide by 33 points at Adelaide Oval on Saturday.
The Dockers' sixth loss to start 2016 'betters' Richmond's five-game losing streak to start the 1983 season, after finishing minor premiers the year before. No club in VFL/AFL history has won a minor premiership and then started the following season as poorly as Fremantle.
Crows star Rory Sloane (31 possessions, one goal) was the pick of the midfielders on Saturday, while Tom Lynch recovered from a disastrous miss early in the game to boot two majors and Eddie Betts continued his stellar run with another four in the 14.13 (97) to 8.15 (63) victory.
Michael Walters was great for the Dockers (29 disposals, three goals), as was Stephen Hill (25 possessions) and Michael Barlow (33 possessions, seven tackles), while Alex Pearce did a great job on Adelaide skipper Taylor Walker (goalless).
