Geelong have Dangerwood, but Fremantle now have their own tag team weapon - the Hill brothers.
Stephen Hill and Bradley Hill have always dreamed about joining forces in an AFL match, and they'll finally get the chance in Sunday's encounter against Geelong at Domain Stadium.
Bradley won three premierships in five years at Hawthorn before securing a trade to the Dockers to join his older brother Stephen at the end of last season.
One of Bradley's flags came against Stephen, when Hawthorn beat Fremantle in the 2013 decider.
Geelong's Patrick Dangerfield and Joel Selwood have become one of the most lethal midfield duos in the league.
The Dockers will be hoping the speedy Hill brothers can come close to matching those feats.
The quartet will square off in a mouthwatering battle on Sunday, and the Hill brothers are ready for it.
"Dangerfield and Selwood are two of the stars of the game, and there's a few other guys that we can't just let slip," Stephen said.
"So we're going to have to be on our game.
"It's going to be a tough battle in the midfield and I'm looking forward to the challenge."
Another mouthwatering duel will be the battle between Brownlow medallists Nat Fyfe and Dangerfield.
The pair racked up a combined 78 disposals, 23 clearances, and two goals when they last went head-to-head in 2015 - when Fyfe's Fremantle team pipped Dangerfield's Crows.
Dockers coach Ross Lyon predicts the pair will battle it out again, but says he'll have a contingency plan in case Dangerfield gets off the leash.
The outlawing of the third-man up in ruck contests is set to play into the hands of 211cm Dockers ruckman Aaron Sandilands.
But Lyon said his team can't simply rely on the dominance of Sandilands all year.
"Aaron's a very good player for us, as Nat is," Lyon said.
"But we don't really have franchise players. We're not a basketball court where one player can dominate.
"You need weight of numbers contribution. Aaron will play his role, and hopefully give us first use. But Geelong have competent ruckmen.
"One player can't do it. Nat can't do it. We want, and need, an equal contribution across the board."
Fremantle will unveil all four of their trade recruits - Brad Hill, Joel Hamling, Cam McCarthy, and former Cat Shane Kersten.
Geelong will feature three new players - former Blue Zach Tuohy, 24-year-old defender Tom Stewart, and young midfielder Brandon Parfitt.
