A new club record and 10 wins in a row are nice, but the only thing that will make Fremantle coach Justin Longmuir truly happy in a footballing sense is an AFL flag.

The Dockers set a new milestone for consecutive wins on Friday night when they overcame a one-point deficit early in the final quarter to post a 30-point victory over St Kilda.

The 16.8 (104) to 11.8 (74) win means the current Fremantle squad surpassed the efforts of their 2015 and 2006 predecessors - both of whom managed nine wins in a row.

Fremantle have the chance to make it 11 straight wins when they take on two-time defending premiers Brisbane at the Gabba next week.

The Dockers are in rarefied air at the minute, but for Longmuir it's all about the bigger picture - flag success.

"Like realistically, it doesn't mean anything, does it?" Longmuir said of the club's new record winning run.

"When you boil it down and whips are cracking at the end of the year, 10 in a row doesn't mean anything.

"What matters is how many games you win at the end of the season, and how highly you qualify, and we haven't qualified for finals, so really it doesn't mean a lot.

"Like, we hadn't beaten Essendon at the MCG up until last week, apparently.

"So records are made to be broken, and you see it in all sports, but there's only one thing that really matters in our game."

That thing that matters is a flag.

The closest Fremantle have come was back in 2013 under coach Ross Lyon, when inaccuracy cost them dearly in a 15-point grand-final loss to Hawthorn.

The current Dockers outfit is rated by many as the best team in the club's history, with Fremantle (10-1) putting themselves in an excellent position to have a crack at this year's premiership.

Star midfielder Caleb Serong (calf) will miss at least one more week, but skipper Alex Pearce (knee) and midfielder Hayden Young (concussion) are strong chances to return against Brisbane.

Longmuir, meanwhile, will seek clarification from the league after defender Karl Worner was penalised for rushing a behind in the second quarter against St Kilda.

Worner initially had time and space as he took a few steps into his defensive goal square and he decided to step over the line once he was corralled by a Saints player.

"I see that happen a lot in the AFL and it's just paid a point, but we'll seek clarification," Longmuir said.

"The rule is if you gather the ball within the goal square and you're under pressure, you can walk over the line like that.

"We'll just go to the umpiring department, seek clarification, and then we'll adjust our game if that is the correct call."
