Dockers coach Justin Longmuir expects tonight’s match to be an open, fast clash while his side is a strong one with three “in form” players omitted despite their recent play.
Corey Wagner, Oscar McDonald and Jaegar O’Meara were omitted this week despite their form with Longmuir not enjoying the task of figuring out which players miss the 23.

“This week was as tough a match committee as I can remember in my time here,” Longmuir told Kayo Sports.
But when asked whether it will be a tight, lockdown game, Longmuir said he doubted that.
“I think it will be open and free flowing, Geelong have taken the game on more than probably any team in the comp,” Longmuir told Kayo Sports.
“They love to get goal-side and move the ball quick with energised runs or back it to one-on-ones and see how they go. I think it will be a quick game.”
