Jordan De Goey will play

A minor injury to his AC joint will not sideline De Goey for Saturday's clash.

"Jordy will be right to go," Fly said.

"He did more than we were asking of him (at training) - he's confident his shoulder is going to be fine."

We love the rain

There's a high chance of showers on Saturday according to the BOM forecast. We prevailed last time we faced Fremantle in wet conditions.

"We've got a good record in the wet," Fly said.

"(Wet conditions) adds to our pressure game, which we like.

"We love the rain."

Acting like winners

"This is not something that's new to us."

"Maybe for the broader footy environment I shared something only we have been talking about (within the four walls) for a long time.

"It wasn't blasted to the players, it was a conversation around 'hey boys, you should be really proud about what we just did - but we have more work to do so there's not time to lay on the ground.'

"On Monday when you walk in here you wouldn't know if we won or lost and that's been our thing all year."

On Fremantle

"I think this game is going to be a lot different to the one we just played - we are preparing ourselves for a real struggle."

"They are a very good defensive team and you don't get to this time of year by chance.

"We will need to bring the best version of ourselves.

"We need to embrace the struggle - the struggle is the way."
