3/4 time: Dockers 48 lead Kangaroos 23
NORTH Melbourne pushed hard in the third quarter with little success on the scoreboard as Fremantle maintains its 25-point buffer.
The Kangaroos came out swinging with Brent Harvey slotting the first goal before giving away a 50m penalty allowing the Dockers to hit back.
The Kangaroos were at it again moments later, forcing a turnover at half forward, to set up Jamie Macmillan's goal.
But the Dockers struck again, this time Nick Suban getting on the end of a flow of play to maintain the four-goal buffer at the change.
Docker Michael Barlow is the most prolific midfielder on the ground with 26 disposals.
Kangaroos captain Andrew Swallow also has 26 disposals to his name.
North Melbourne activated substitute Brad McKenzie in the third term, replacing Lindsay Thomas (hamstring).
1/2 time: Dockers 36 lead Kangaroos 9
FREMANTLE tightened its grip on the match outscoring North Melbourne four goals to one in the second quarter.
The Kangaroos struck first with Aaron Mullett cruising to the 50m and splitting the middle from the pocket.
But from there it was all the Dockers' run and carry game putting the Kangaroos under pressure.
Matt deBoer was one of the Dockers best racking up 15 disposals and goal while Michael Barlow and Nat Fyfe dominate the stoppages.
1/4 time: Dockers 9 lead Kangaroos 2
FREMANTLE staved off an early North Melbourne onslaught to secure a seven-point lead at the first change.
The Kangaroos had the ball in their own half for much of the first quarter but were unable to capitalise on the scoreboard.
When Dockers ruckman Zac Clarke won a soft in-the-back free 55m from home the writing was on the wall for the Roos.
Clarke's kick to the goal square left the door ajar for Michael Barlow to swoop on the loose ball for the first of the match.
Kangaroos midfielder Ryan Bastinac is the leading possession winner on the ground with 11.
PRE-GAME
FREMANTLE midfielder David Mundy was withdrawn from the Dockers clash with North Melbourne in Perth as a precautionary measure with hopes he will resume against Geelong at Simonds Stadium next Saturday.
Meanwhile, the Kangaroos will be without hard-nosed midfielder Ben Cunnington.
The former No.5 draft pick has withdrawn due to family reasons, replaced by Brad McKenzie.
Mundy was a late withdrawal with a calf strain the All-Australian contender suffered at training late last week.
The trump ball-winner around heavy midfield congestion had been restricted to light skills and running duties as early as Wednesday but then failed to recover fully to take his place against the dangerous Roos on-ball division at home.
He is now headed for a return in Saturday's night's possible blockbuster against the in-form Cats who have won 42 or their last 44 games on their cherished home turf in Geelong.
The Dockers have only ever beaten the Cats in Geelong once in 12 visits since joining the AFL in 1995.
Mundy, 27, averages 23 disposals a game from his 11 outings so far this season with more than half of his possessions earned in contests.
The 175-game veteran was replaced in the Dockers starting line-up by second year small forward Hayden Crozier.
