Dockers stack city: DFS targets for Fremantle vs Hawthorn at Perth Stadium

Thursday night footy in the west sets up as a Freo-friendly fantasy slate. Hawthorn’s youth meets Fremantle’s engine at Perth Stadium, and our projections are shouting purple stacks with a sprinkle of Hawk leverage.

Key DFS builds and why they’ll pop: - Luke Jackson (RUC, 94.6 proj, 10/10): The slate’s cornerstone. Expect a hitout edge plus bonus points around the ground with marks, ground-ball gets and tackles. If he drifts forward, he can add a snag or two. - Matthew Johnson (MID, 64.4, 10/10): Role-driven volume. He links chains on the outside and still brings pressure — think steady disposals, +6 marks when Freo control tempo, and handy tackles. - Josh Treacy (FWD, 74.8, 10/10): Hawthorn’s key backs will have their hands full. Treacy’s contested marking, set shots and ruck pinch-hit combine for a ceiling game if the Dockers spend time in their front half. - Michael Frederick (FWD, 55.5, 8/10): Speed merchant who feasts when Freo surge. Scoreboard impact plus forward-half tackles give him multiple scoring avenues; a live-wire GPP piece when the ball hits grass. - Jordan Clark (DEF, 78.1, 7/10): Run-and-gun half-back drives Freo’s rebound. Kick-mark combos and overlap receives can rack up quickly if the Dockers own territory.

Position-by-position quick tips: - RUC: Lock Luke Jackson. Eat the chalk; the projection and all-field role are too strong. - DEF: Start with Jordan Clark. Round out with Luke Ryan’s intercept ceiling or James Sicily for Hawks kick-mark volume if the ball lives in their back half. - MID: Anchor with Andrew Brayshaw and/or Caleb Serong for 30+ disposal upside. Matthew Johnson is your steady accumulator; Neil Erasmus and Hayden Young are sharp complements in stacks. - FWD: Josh Treacy is the primary spearhead. Pair with Michael Frederick for pace and pressure; Jack Ginnivan offers contrarian Hawks goal equity if you fade a Freo clean sheet.
