Hawthorn coach Sam Mitchell has described their 13-point loss to Fremantle as like a "punch to the stomach", but declared his team is still up for the fight in the battle for a top-four berth.
The Dockers kicked four goals to zip in the final quarter at a heaving Optus Stadium on Saturday night to turn a 13-point deficit into a fighting 12.5 (77) to 9.10 (64) win.
