Port Adelaide

Port Adelaide's season has hit a turbulent patch as the Power battle on multiple fronts in the AFL. Miles Bergman has been a bright spark for the club, delivering crucial goals under pressure including a ripping effort against Geelong, but the team suffered a heartbreaking one-point loss to arch-rivals Adelaide in a classic Showdown clash when the Crows kicked a last-minute goal to steal the win. Adding to the Power's woes, Port Adelaide has joined Carlton in losing their battle against an AFL draft shake-up that will force clubs to pay a higher price to match bids for father-son and next generation talent, a blow that could impact their recruitment strategy going forward.
