Match day simulation, full ground running and contested football were emphasised at Fremantle’s training session on Monday, as well as the return of some key Freo figures.

Nat Fyfe and Zac Clarke returned to training with the full squad, with both slipping back into the fold comfortably 

Fyfe broke tackles and displayed his well renowned leaping abilities, taking strong marks on the lead to start training.

Familiar forwards impress

Familiar forward line faces of Michael Walters and Chris Mayne provided their trademark pressure inside the forward fifty. Mayne also kicked truly in a long attempt from the pocket in blustery conditions. 

 

Mature age recruit Sam Collins continued to impress, spoiling contests in the back line as well as imposing himself and taking a strong pack mark on the wing.

 

Hayden Ballantyne enjoyed bursts through the midfield, with his pace and agility on display on a number of occasions as he weaved his way through midfield congestion.
