Fremantle/Geelong -30.5
OK, I am not going to over-analyze this match as I think simplicity wins the day here. Geelong have been flying along whilst the Dockers have quite possibly, outside of WC and the Dees, been sporting the worst form of the comp.
Geelong covered this line against the tough Swans. They didn't even need the whole match to do it, just the final ten minutes. Fremantle, on the other hand, shot their load against the Crows, but came up about three goals short. That is not very far away from this line. Geelong is much better than Adelaide. Also, do remember that had the Dockers been given the same head-start as they receive this round versus the Tigers, they still wouldn't have covered.
Whilst Ling is a gameday concern for the Cats, Tarrant is out for the Dockers. And this just in, Headland will be joining his mate Chris on the sideline, out for this match. Fremantle need all their playmakers to have a shot at this one. Losing two of their more respectable players will do them no favors.
All-in-all, after stepping back and looking at this match and this line again, it becomes clearer and clearer that we are getting a decent bargain here on the Cats. Only five goals and a chip needed to cover against a rapidly plummeting Dockers side. Surely the Dockers will turn it around, as they have too much talent around the pitch to sulk for the rest of the season. However, I am wagering on the fact that it won't start this weekend.
Play is: Geelong -30.5

And Medhurst did himself a fine job tonight as well.
