The Dockers are doing well in 2026, and fans hope they will win the premiership in September

When I was growing up, we had a saying to not get too excited about things that might not happen

This saying was used for many things, like getting a new toy or concert tickets

The saying was 'don't get your hopes up'

But as a child, it's hard not to get excited

The coach and captain of the team say they won't get ahead of themselves

Getting excited can be good for the spirit, but it can also lead to disappointment

Every sports fan knows how hard it is to balance excitement and reality

This season has had many close games in the AFL

Fremantle fans are slowly starting to think that their team could win the premiership

The club is encouraging fans to be excited and imagine what could happen

The coach says that fans should be excited, but the team needs to focus on the present

The captain and coach agree that they won't get too far ahead of themselves

Fremantle has a strong team this season

The team has players like Caleb Serong and Andrew Brayshaw who are not always in the spotlight

These players are happy to help the team and not just focus on themselves

When Richmond was winning, they had a player named Dustin Martin who could change the game

Fremantle has three players who can change the game when it's close

Luke Jackson is one of the best players in the AFL

He is very athletic and can do many things on the field

If the team needs a big play, Luke Jackson can make it happen

Shai Bolton is another player who can change the game with one play

He can kick goals or make big tackles to help his team

Shai Bolton is a very talented player who can make a difference

Hayden Young is a skilled player who can pass the ball very well

He is physically strong and can play many positions

Josh Treacy is a key forward who works very hard and is good at catching the ball

If teams try to stop Josh Treacy, they will have to deal with Pat Voss, who is also a strong player

The team has many good players, including Jye Amiss, who can kick goals and make big plays

Josh Treacy has improved a lot this season and is kicking many goals

The team's three main forwards have kicked 88 goals so far this season

The team's defense is also very strong and doesn't let many goals in

The tall players on the team, like Alex Pearce and Luke Ryan, help the team by getting the ball and passing it to the faster players

Fremantle has won 12 games in a row and is in good physical condition

The team has only one injured player, which is very good for this time of the season

The team is playing very well and has a good chance of winning the premiership

The club has never been in a better position to win its first premiership

Other teams have broken long droughts this year, so maybe Fremantle can do the same

The New York Knicks won their first title in many years, and it was a big celebration

If Fremantle wins the premiership, the city will likely have a big party

The 23 players and the coach would become legends if they win the premiership
