Fremantle at Patersons Stadium is one of the toughest assignments in the AFL and Greater Western Sydney will need to produce its greatest ever performance to overcome the Dockers. 

Fremantle is on a seven-match winning streak but the more daunting issue for the GIANTS is how can they possibly kick a winning score. In two previous matches against Fremantle they have failed to kick more than six goals. 

Five teams - Collingwood, Gold Coast, the Western Bulldogs, the Brisbane Lions, and Melbourne - have suffered the same fate this season. 

The GIANTS have been the number one centre clearance team this year, an area in which the Dockers have struggled. They will take the ball forward, but can they score heavily enough to trouble Fremantle?
