Darcy to get Thunder-struck, but Fyfe sidelined again
Fremantle ruckman Sean Darcy will make his return through the WAFL, but he’s unlikely to be joined by former captain Nat Fyfe who is battling knee soreness.
It comes as the Dockers weigh up whether to bring midfielder Hayden Young back into the side to take on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium on Sunday or give him a run at Peel Thunder.
Dockers coach Justin Longmuir confirmed Darcy would play for the Thunder — his first game at the level since 2019 — against Claremont in Mandurah on Saturday in his first game of the year after battling knee and ankle injuries.
