Show Preview
The first preliminary final sees the Port Adelaide Power tackles the Richmond Tigers in what’s set to be a blockbuster at the Adelaide Oval. Join The Roar for live scores and commentary from 7:50pm (AEDT).
The minor premiers passed their first hurdle with relative ease two weeks ago, taking full advantage of Geelong’s inaccuracy to claim a 16-point win and progress to their first preliminary final since 2014. The Power have sat atop the AFL ladder since the very first round of the home-and-away season and enter this match having won six matches in a row and nine of their last ten. They’ve also only lost once at home this season.
Richmond, on the other hand, got themselves back on track with a comfortable semi-final win over St Kilda last week. After mental lapses and poor discipline cost them against Brisbane in their qualifying final, the Tigers got back to good footy against the Saints and put their less experienced rivals to the sword in smart fashion. Richmond had won six in a row coming into finals and look to be in just as good form as their opponents tonight.
Port took the points when these sides clashed in the home-and-away season, a 21-point point triumph in Round 11. The last, and only, time these sides have met in a final was 2014’s elimination final, where the Power kicked 14 goals to three in the first half to run away with an emphatic 57-point win.
