FREMANTLE has kicked away to beat Port Adelaide by 40 points at Patersons Stadium on Sunday, with captain Matthew Pavlich booting his 500th career goal in the dying minutes. 

The veteran bounced back to form to kick four goals, becoming the first Fremantle player to reach the magical 500 milestone as his team won 12.15 (87) to 7.5 (47).

 Five talking points

1. Prime target
Matthew Primus has been under pressure all week after his side was well-beaten at home last week by Richmond. The inconsistent performance against Fremantle will have done little to silence the critics, especially considering the Power were only kept in the game by Fremantle’s poor kicking. Fremantle dominated the inside-50s (55-36) and had 27 shots on goal to Port Adelaide’s 12. Primus can expect to come under heavy scrutiny again this week and won’t receive any favours from North Melbourne, which suffered a surprise loss to the Western Bulldogs, when the two teams face off at AAMI Stadium on Saturday.

2. Tower of strength
Aaron Sandilands' return from a calf injury after two weeks on the sidelines was important for Fremantle, which had struggled around the stoppages during his absence. The team’s backup ruckman Jonathon Griffin was unable to match it with Shaun Hampson and Matthew Kreuzer against Carlton, but gave Fremantle a slight edge against Gold Coast. But Sandilands dominated from the opening bounce against Port, amassing 18 hit-outs in the first quarter alone. By the end of the game, he had 43 hit-outs, while Brent Renouf and Daniel Stewart could only manage 30 between them. He’s the reason Fremantle wins more hit-outs than any other side, despite being eighth for clearance differential (+5) before this match.

3. Brad and Brett brought together 
Brad Ebert and his cousin Brett presented commentators with some problems when they took the field together for the first time. Brad, who played 76 games during his four seasons with West Coast, returned to his home town this year and has been one of Port’s shining lights. Brett Ebert, meanwhile, has been inconsistent during his appearances for the Port Adelaide Magpies in the SANFL. He finally broke into the team this week after knocking up 17 disposals and one goal against West Adelaide last week. Brad Ebert racked up 22 touches against Fremantle, while Brett managed six after coming on as a substitute in the last quarter.

 FREMANTLE coach Ross Lyon stands by his pre-match comment that Gold Coast lacks respect for his club despite the unfancied Suns almost pulling off their first home-ground win on Saturday night.


Lyon, who admitted relief at the seven-point victory at Metricon Stadium, made the call in response to Suns' skipper Gary Ablett's now infamous tweet regarding the style of Freo tagger Ryan Crowley.

Ablett's plea for the umpires to penalise Crowley for what he believed were scragging tactics on Carlton's Chris Judd, kicked up a media storm with Lyon's strongly worded response lending an edge to the teams' round-six clash.

Post-game, the coach's feelings on the matter had not changed.

"I was unhappy with the new paradigm, the social media platform being a vehicle to personalise a view on our players and I think it is uncalled for and unnecessary," Lyon said.

 FREMANTLE has dodged a huge bullet, hanging on to defeat an injury-depleted Gold Coast by seven points in a thrilling match at Metricon Stadium on Saturday night.

The Suns led by 17 points at half-time, but Freo overcame six lead changes in the final quarter to win 14.10 (94) to 14.3 (87).

Five Talking Points:

 1. Answering the call
Already missing the experience and leadership of Gary Ablett and Michael Rischitelli, the question when Nathan Bock went down early with a broken leg was, how would the young Suns respond? The answer: tremendously. From Bock's departure to half-time, the Suns kicked six goals to two. The last of those, kicked after the siren, brought the team around Karmichael Hunt as if he'd just nailed the Grand Final winner - a sign of the spirit and belief that almost carried the day.

2. Will $1million buy you goals?
Does Freo need a $1million key forward? Would they kick it to him enough even if he was there? A high percentage of Freo's goals against Gold Coast came with balls over the top. Which is fine, except if you're not kicking a lot of them. In six rounds, Fremantle has averaged only 82 points and found scoring hard going against a depleted Suns. Yes, Travis Cloke or similar might straighten up Ross Lyon's men, but a change in game style could be needed to justify the price tag.
