While the SCG has been a house of horror for many sides over the years, Fremantle’s Nat Fyfe has a love affair with the ground dating back to his first AFL season.

He has polled seven of a possible nine votes from Freo’s past three games at the venue.

Fyfe’s affinity with the SCG began in round 9, 2010.

A then skinny lad from Lake Grace claimed a NAB Rising Star nomination with a breakout 23-possession, seven-mark performance in a Freo victory.

He played on half-back and mopped up throughout the game with poise beyond his youth.

A year later, Fyfe returned to Sydney as a midfielder and played one of the best games of his young career.

On a wet day, he showed just how far his contested ball skills had come with a stunning effort that helped Fremantle upset the Swans by 11 points in Roger Hayden’s last game.

Fyfe also kicked a memorable goal from outside 50 that swung the momentum of the game.

Last year in Sydney, the 21-year-old picked up two Brownlow Medal votes following 28 touches in a close loss.

Fyfe has missed Freo’s past two games through suspension but he returns to rekindle his SCG flame on Saturday night.
