A couple of times this quarter Fremantle have gotten out the back with numbers but at the crucial moment they’ve overused it or fumbled the key pass to leave multiple opportunities begging.
Logan Morris from the goal sqaure
Ah Chee sends in the ball deep and Logan Morris somehow comes down with it from a six-man pack with a juggling effort.
