Fremantle forward Sam Switkowski suffered a suspected concussion when he was crunched in a first-quarter marking contest, ruling him out for the rest of the match.
The All Stars were hot from the outset, with their swift ball movement and willingness to take risks a sight to behold.
Hill kicked the opening goal after Fremantle’s defence were panicked into a mistake, while some inventive handballs in the midfield set up Horne-Francis for their second.
Tyson Stengle produced one of the highlights of the quarter when he nailed a tough 40m set shot from the boundary line, helping give the All Stars a, 18-point lead at quarter time.
Kysaiah Pickett, who is rumoured to want a trade to Fremantle from Melbourne at the end of this year, produced a crowd-pleasing “don’t argue” fend-off on Serong early in the second quarter
Pickett also kicked a fine goal later in the term, but two goals to Fremantle forward Frederick closed the margin to 12 points by half-time.
Hill kicked two goals in the third quarter as the All Stars broke the game open, giving them a 30-point lead at the final change.
The carnage continued in the last term as the stunning skill and pace of the All Stars humbled Fremantle, who were without players including Sean Darcy, Hayden Young, Luke Ryan and Nat Fyfe, as well as All Stars squad members Shai Bolton, Alex Pearce and Michael Walters.
Pearce didn’t play due to an ankle injury.
“There was a lot of talent on the opposition,” Fremantle coach Justin Longmuir said.
“We knew coming into it that they were going to have a lot of flair and play with a lot of joy and really try and put on a good show.
“I just thought they were cleaner and used the ball a lot better, and that skill really shone through.”
