Fremantle midfielder Lachie Neale says those coming into the side to face Port Adelaide play the Freo way.

The club has made 11 changes to the side to play at Adelaide Oval on Saturday, including three debutants Connor Blakely, Brady Grey and Ethan Hughes.

Neale said those who had played with Peel Thunder in the WAFL this season, train and play the game plans and structures as the AFL side.

“Fulfilling the structures and game plan required.”

“The guys who have worked really hard in the WAFL all year, they get an opportunity this week,” he said.

“It is really exciting time for the footy club and young guys.

“All we can ask is they play their role and give effort.

“They may make mistakes…but it’s about how they will respond after that and focus on their next contest.”
