Geelong Cats vs Port Adelaide Power Preview

Of the six teams vying for a finals berth, the Cats appear the most likely to sneak in with a handy run home.

But nothing is a given this week against a Port outfit eager to prove their critics wrong by snapping a three-game skid.

After an encouraging two-point defeat to Collingwood the week prior, the Power came undone in last week’s Showdown, managing just nine goals from a whopping 65 inside 50 entries.

Not to be outdone, the Cats were just as underwhelming, suffering one of the upsets of the season at home to the lowly Fremantle Dockers.

Chris Scott had no real answer for his team’s performance in his milestone game as coach, while the loss was also felt in more ways than one with key Premiership stars Tom Hawkins and Mark Blicavs suffering hamstring injuries.

Blicavs’ injury is of the more serious nature, placing enormous strain around the ruck for Geelong going forward.

That said, Jeremy Cameron’s form has dropped off over the last month, and while the Cats have plenty of depth to fall back on, Hawkins’ absence couldn’t have come at a worse time.

To complicate matters, Port has been one of the best teams at landing tackles inside 50, which does make them an interesting betting proposition on the road.

The Power haven’t won in Geelong since 2007, but it’s fair to say the Cattery hasn’t been the fortress it once was.

With their top two spot on the line and a comfortable 38-point win to their name over the Cats only two months earlier, Port should respond in a big way.
