Port Adelaide Power vs Western Bulldogs Preview
Port Adelaide are coming off a great win over St Kilda last round but it doesn’t get any easier for them this week despite returning to Adelaide Oval.
They take on the Western Bulldogs who has a comfortable win over Essendon.
Last time these two sides met it was the Bulldogs who slaughtered Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval so they will no doubt be confident heading into this fixture.
Port Adelaide’s win last round also looked a lot more taxing given the tough Cairns conditions. I’m backing the Bulldogs here.
