The two teams out west are firing in 2015, with the match between the Eagles and the Dockers this time around touted as a possible grand final preview.
The Derby always throws up a special moment, but usually they don't come as early as Mark Hutchings’ incredible effort from the point of the arc early in the first term.
Hutchings enjoyed his own work so much, he thought he would get the crowd involved, with high-fives all round as he celebrated his side’s brilliant start against the ladder-leading Dockers.
High fives all round for Mark Hutchings following this effort! #AFLFreoEagles http://t.co/vWl7MwnSjU
