Fremantle Dockers odds
The Fremantle Dockers are still searching for their first piece of AFL silverware.
Excluding the two newest franchises, GWS and Gold Coast, Fremantle is the only club in the AFL to not have won an AFL Premiership. The Dockers played in their first grand final in 2013 after entering the competition in 1995 but lost to Hawthorn.
After a period of playing in finals and competing for the ultimate earlier in the decade, master coach Ross Lyon has been forced to rebuild this Dockers side around its captain and best player, Nathan Fyfe.
Can Fyfe lead Freo back to finals football in 2019? Let’s take a look at the latest footy odds for the year ahead.

Best Fremantle Dockers bets for the 2019 AFL season
Where are the best Fremantle bets in the AFL futures markets for 2019?
Click on the tabs below to get more analysis on these markets:
- Fremantle will not win the 2019 AFL premiership. It just won’t happen. Yes, the Dockers have a respected coach in Ross Lyon, a bona fide superstar in Nat Fyfe and a big recruit in Jesse Hogan, but this list is simply not built for September. This is another year for developing the youngsters that showed a bit last season.
- A lot has to go right for the Dockers to push for a finals spot. If Fyfe is out of the team for any stretch of time, they are no chance of making an appearance in September. There are far better options – Essendon, Adelaide, etc – among those looking to break into the eight this season.
- Nat Fyfe is a perpetual contender in the Bronwlow Medal betting. The midfielder polled 16 votes last year despite playing only 15 games in a team that finished 14th on the ladder. If he maintains that kind of strike rate over 20-odd games, Fyfe will have a red-hot chance of winning the Charlie for the second time in his career.
- Freo have had a few contenders in the Rising Star betting in recent years, but those players are no longer eligible. Stefan Giro showed some promise in his handful of games last season and looks the best bet among the next generation of Dockers.
- At long last, Fremantle have a something resembling a realistic chance in the Coleman Medal betting. Jesse Hogan copped plenty of grief from Demons fans in his last season at Melbourne, yet he finished the year with 47 goals despite playing a more advanced role for much of the campaign. If nothing else, he will top Freo’s goalkicking this year.

Dockers players to watch in 2019
Jesse Hogan
Born: 12/2/1995
Games: 71
Goals: 152
Position: Forward
Have the Dockers spent millions on a spud? Hogan has made headlines for all the wrong reasons since leaving Melbourne last year, but there is no denying his quality as a footballer. For better or worse, this is a signing that could define Freo for years to come.
Rory Lobb
Born: 9/2/1993
Games: 74
Goals: 64
Position: Ruck/forward
There are many in the footy business who rate Lobb as one of the next great ruckmen, but right now the former Giant is a very capable forward with considerable upside. He will take some heat off Hogan inside 50 and give Aaron Sandilands a chop-out when required.
Travis Colyer
Born: 24/8/1991
Games: 87
Goals: 54
Position: Midfielder
Colyer has never quite been the same player since missing a year of footy due to the Essendon doping saga. His opportunities at the Dons were limited after that, but Freo could benefit from another speedy midfielder now that Lachie Neale has left for pastures new.
