Port Adelaide Power vs Essendon Bombers Preview
Port Adelaide host Essendon in a match that could reveal plenty about both sides’ prospects this season. The Power possess one of the league’s most experienced midfields and will aim to control stoppages and territory. Essendon’s young midfield continues to develop and will be tested against Port’s physical style around the contest. The Bombers’ ability to move the ball quickly into attack could create scoring opportunities if they win turnover ball. Port Adelaide, however, are difficult to beat when they dominate clearances and field position. If the Power can apply sustained pressure inside 50 they should be able to challenge Essendon’s defence.
