AFL: The Bombers have taken a huge step forward towards landing a top 4 spot with a narrow win against the Pies at the MCG.
Port Adelaide faces off with the Western Bulldogs in a huge clash between two finals aspirants at Adelaide Oval.
After an up and down stretch, the Power bounced back with a two-point win over St Kilda, leading to emotional scenes with coach Ken Hinkley post-match. The Dogs meanwhile sit on the cusp of the top eight after winning three of their last four games. But they’ll be without Liam Jones and Cody Weightman, with the former’s absence to test their defence.There were no late changes, with Logan Evans and Joel Freijah named the starting subs.
Luke Beveridge pulled an early surprise, putting Sam Darcy in the ruck over Tim English to face off against ex-Bulldog Jordon Sweet.Ken Hinkley’s side controlled the first term, with the game played in its front half amid severe pressure on the ball. “They’re all over the Dogs at the moment, they can’t find an easy exit,” Roos legend David King said on Fox Footy. “Ken Hinkley would be rapt with this, this is exactly how they want the game to look.”
