Summary Two teams with a run of losses on the
board. And with Port, last year's grand finalists, boasting a 1-5
record at home, there's not a lot to recommend them. While the
derby clashes are awlays fierce, the Crows need to shore up their
perilous position in the eight. It will be a tougher job without
top goalkickers Brett Burton and Jason Porplyzia, who are both out
injured. And shutting down Kane Cornes and Shaun Burgoyne is not
going to be easy. But, wildcard Daniel Motlop aside, there doesn't
seem too much in the Port attacking half to overly concern the
Crows' much-vaunted defence.
Key With finals still on the agenda, the Crows
have more to lose than the Power, who are fighting for local
bragging rights only.
Tip Adelaide by 15 points
