Match report: Port in a storm ends Tigers' finals hopes
July 1, 2016 10:25 PM
A BRILLIANT seven-goal second term has helped Port Adelaide keep its season alive, notching up a gutsy 38-point win over Richmond in tricky conditions at Adelaide Oval on Friday night, 14.10 (94) to 8.8 (56).
The Power returned from their round 14 bye following back-to-back losses but, after a slow start, hunted the Tigers ruthlessly in the second term, winning inside 50s 20-6.
The defeat was Richmond’s fifth from as many Friday night encounters this year.
The victory leaves Port two wins from the eighth-placed Western Bulldogs. Power skipper Travis Boak (26 disposals, 11 tackles, two goals) was best afield, while Matthew Broadbent (two goals, four clearances), Ollie Wines (10 clearances) and Brad Ebert (eight clearances) were forces on the inside and Kane Mitchell (24 disposals, one goal) curbed the influence of Tigers captain Trent Cotchin (14 possessions).
