Match report: Power flick switch to torch Magpies
June 5, 2016 3:35 PM
PORT Adelaide is threatening to break into the top eight after its fleet of small forwards led the team to its sixth win of the season, cruising past a disappointing Collingwood to win by 67 points at the MCG on Sunday.
Written off as a September contender after lurching to 2-3 in the first five rounds, the Power have recovered and were a class above the Magpies in slippery conditions, winning 19.11 (125) to 7.16 (58).
They will finish the round one game behind eighth-placed Adelaide if their cross-town rival accounts for St Kilda, but there is no doubt their finals flame is flickering.
Port coach Ken Hinkley won the coaches' box battle against Nathan Buckley, with his small forward line and loose man behind the ball allowing the Power to dictate play for the majority of the match.
Weiterlesen ...Jake Neade (four goals), Aaron Young (four) and Chad Wingard (three) ran riot in the forward half, continually outsmarting their opponents to find space and kick goals on the counter-punch.
