Port Adelaide vs West Coast AFL Finals live scores and blog

Port Adelaide have been one of 2017’s biggest surprises. After two years of not delivering on their promise, few expected any different from the Power this season.

But Port have been quite the force, winning 14 games to claim fifth spot on the ladder. Their poor record against other top eight teams, however, has been mentioned a few times.

West Coast looked done and dusted heading into the final week of the season, but a stunning capitulation by Melbourne on the Saturday afternoon threw the door wide open.

‘All’ the Eagles needed to do was knock off first-placed Adelaide by more than 20 points, but they were able to do so – triumphing by 29 points in the last game ever at Domain Stadium.
