Port Adelaide v Carlton Preview, Adelaide Oval

Port Adelaide have quietly gone a game clear in third on the ladder after comfortably taking
care of winless North Melbourne last week. The Power had to pull off a miracle comeback to
win their last match at home – an escape against Hawthorn in round 10. But Ken Hinkley’s
team could be boosted by the return of captain Connor Rozee, who was infamously risked in
the Showdown loss and made his hamstring injury worse. Carlton have a dire record at the
Adelaide Oval, never beating either of the two South Australian teams at the venue. But all
the Blues stars are firing and this could be the perfect opportunity to break the drought.

TIP: Port by 9 points, Charlie Curnow to kick three or more goals
