BOMBERS BLOW DOCKERS AWAY
Friday, 5 September 2003
The Bombers went to Perth on a mission tonight, and simply blew the inexperienced Dockers away with some blistering finals football. Captain James Hird once again showed the football world why he is one of the greatest players to ever wear the red and black, setting up victory for the Bombers with his 28 possessions. Essendon's physical presence was simply too much for Fremantle, as the Bombers head to the second week of the finals.
