For the second consecutive week, five Fremantle stars have been selected in afl.com.au’s Team of the Week.
Round one Team of the Week
Freo lead the way yet again with the most players selected from any one club after defeating Geelong by 44 points on Sunday.
MICHAEL JOHNSON (Back pocket) - Gave away height and strength to opponent Tom Hawkins, but was able to restrict him to two goals. He has stepped up in a shutdown role with Zac Dawson and Alex Silvagni sidelined.
NAT FYFE (Wing) - A complete performance from the superstar Freo Docker who won 25 of his 36 possessions in contests. Took contested marks, burst through congestion to kick goals and used the ball at 80.6 per cent efficiency. Unstoppable in the last quarter.
Fyfe nominated for goal of the year again
STEPHEN HILL (Half forward) - Has to be squeezed onto a half-forward flank, given the strength of this week's midfield. Kicked two goals and had 10 inside 50s, the second highest of the round behind Jake Melksham (12).
DAVID MUNDY (Rover) - Had an AFL-high 39 possessions against Geelong as part of a dominant Freo midfield. A star in the first half and laid nine tackles.
MICHAEL BARLOW (Interchange) - Hard to believe he was the fourth best midfielder for Fremantle with 31 disposals and 13 marks. Used the ball efficiently and pushed forward to kick three goals.
