Port Adelaide vs Essendon Bombers Preview
Port Adelaide broke a string of four consecutive wins by losing to the Cats at GMHBA Stadium on Saturday.
The Power really struggled to convert on the scoreboard and, despite entering their forward 50 43 times and taking 13 marks inside the arc, they hit the scoreboard just 12 times.
There were plenty that were feeling good about the Bombers after their tough win against Hawthorn in round 8 but they have now put in two pretty ordinary performances.
Losses to Sydney by 58 points and Richmond by 32 points in consecutive weeks has people pondering how dire the rest of the season will be.
This is simply one that the Power can ill afford to lose and back on their home deck, they get the win.
