π Fremantle have reached the 2026 AFL Grand Final after overturning a late 27-point deficit to defeat Sydney 12.11 (83) to 10.11 (71) in their preliminary final at the SCG.
The Dockers kicked the final six goals of the match. Hayden Young's goal after the three-quarter-time siren narrowed the margin before Fremantle took control in the last quarter.
Andrew Brayshaw had 29 disposals, while Luke Jackson, Shai Bolton and Isaiah Dudley each kicked two goals. Sydney's Logan McDonald kicked three goals and Errol Gulden recorded 36 disposals.
The win sends Fremantle to only the second AFL Grand Final in club history, after its 2013 appearance. The Dockers will face Hawthorn or Brisbane at the MCG. π
