AFL Finals: Fremantle Dockers to face Sydney Swans on Friday night as Brisbane smash Adelaide
Fremantle will face Sydney under Friday night lights after the AFL confirmed the preliminary finals fixtures following Brisbane’s rout of Adelaide.
The Dockers will face the Swans at 5.40pm (AWST) on September 19 at the SCG with a chance to book just their second-ever grand final appearance.
Remarkably, it will be the third time Fremantle have faced Sydney in what will be just the Dockers’ fourth preliminary final, having split previous meetings in 2006 and 2013.
It comes as Brisbane kept their three-peat hopes alive with a rout of the Adelaide Crows in a 21.18 (144) to 13.13 (91) victory at the Gabba, which was also Tex Walker’s final game.
