Essendon Bombers vs Port Adelaide Power Preview
The Bombers and Port have been two of the most disappointing sides this year after both qualifying for the finals only 12 months ago.
Errant goal-kicking and struggles around the stoppages saw the Dons fall 27 points shy of the Giants last week, while the Power were also ordinary in similar areas against Richmond at home.
The Power walked away 16-point winners when these two sides met back in Round 11, but it’s hard to read too much into that game given how inconsistent both sides have been.
Port has won only two games on the road this season, but it’s worth noting the Power have won four straight over the Bombers dating back to 2019.
The potential inclusion of Connor Rozee should strengthen the Power midfield, and with a strong 6-0 record at the line in their last six games at Marvel, Port looks a good bet to keep this close.
