Live: Power looking for revenge on swans, Star Bomber to undergo surgery

Another great move, another Miss from Nick Blakey!

The swans were on their way to the races, while Justin Mcinerney Blakey sent through it and he went on the crack, but his kick was not on the mail this time – missed the target.

Dean Cox jumps up and down on the sidelines, so frustrated.

The swans certainly lift here, they go directly through the corridor and count the ball forward as quickly as possible as they can.

That time they moved it from D50 to Forward 50, with Nick Blakey at the end of it – he kicked the run from 45, while the crowd roared – but it hit the mail!

So far there is not much to shout for Sydney, but they are starting to build some momentum.

A good move led to a point of Nick Blakey, but Port Adelaide is now trying to play a little pace to slow things down again.

Saying that this was important is an understatement.

Repeat submissions for the first time in Forever, the ball goes deep into the left bag and Tom McCartin forces the game and then hoists a kick inboard for Will Hayward to jump and take the goal.

He focuses and kicks the goal, to the relief of his team and the fans! Sydney Trail with 22 points.

This is ridiculous pressure from Port Adelaide – Sydney cannot get the ball out of D50, let alone halfway.

That time the ball came to Willie Rioli, who then killed and turned his defender inside out, before a nice snap from the outside of the boot that flew home.

They are six goals for one for power, while Port Adelaide hurry to teammates to get around Sewer who had a tough week.

Sydney coach Dean Cox realizes that this situation gets out of hand. He came from the box to the sidelines and he talks to his players in a very animated way.

That had a bit of bad luck for Sydney, when Port Adelaide got away with a throw.

But they brought the ball forward and it ended with Tom Cochrane, and the Power player kicked a brilliant banana from the court section.

Danger signs for Sydney, Port Adelaide leads with 23 points.

This Sydney attack looks toothless.

Without Tom Papley, no Joel Amartey and Hayden McLean bring a bit of time through the ground in an attempt to get some ball, it is a heavy sled for the swans.

Sydney lifts the pressure in the second quarter, but they don’t get easy goals.

Tom Hanily was caught when he kicked and broke the movement.

A minute later they went back inside, but it was a hasty lagging behind.

However, it is just the difference summarized – the swans have to fight tooth and nail for every entry, in contrast to the power.

While the bombers are coming to the Sam Draper News, there is a positive development for the crows on the Location Front.

Forward Darcy Fogarty avoided a big injury after he had affected his shoulder against the Giants on Saturday.

He has been diagnosed with a sternoclavicular joint sprain after scans on Sunday morning.

Fogarty will be assessed in the coming days to determine whether it is available for the Tour of the CROWS-Seven-Seven against the Dockers.

The high-performance manager Darren Burgess of the crows said:

We will have to settle for a few days, so he will be on light tasks, but in short, there is no major structural damage that is pleasant.

It is too early to sound him from the trip to Perth, but his availability will clearly depend on how he responds during the week.

• Hit Outs: Port Adelaide 11-10

• Clearance: Port Adelaide 9-8

• Middle clearance from the middle: Sydney 4-1

• Disputed assets: Sydney 42-25

• Undisputed assets: Port Adelaide 53-46

• Marks within 50: Port Adelaide 8-1

• Tackles: Port Adelaide 19-8

The siren goes, and that was a disappointing quarter for the home team.

They have not looked at their game at all so far.

On the other hand, Port Adelaide does not quite do what they want, but they find their way too easy within 50.

Mitch Georgiades and others cut the Swans defense apart, and it is difficult to see where the swans come back if they cannot touch goals.

Most Stat categories are level or a few preference for Sydney.

However, the highlight is markings within 50.

Port Adelaide has taken seven grippers in the arch to just one from Sydney.

This starts to see a bit of Deja Vu from last Sunday evening.

The force here jumped on the swans as they did the Hawks in Gather Round.

They get the ball within 50, it comes back to Jason Horne-Francis, who stands out of a tackle and flows to Connor Rozee before they are incoming.

There is the goal and there is a fourth goal for the quarter. The Swans Trail with 18 points, and they are lucky that it is no longer.

As we noticed before the game, Port Adelaide number one in the Afl for handball, and they just turned Quick Ball movement into a different purpose.

They had the ball in the middle, and a series of fast hands released the ball before a chip found to the hotspot Ollie Lord, who marked and kicked the goal.

The visitors now lead with 12.

It is not the news that Essendon fans want to hear.

The bombers have confirmed that Ruck Sam Draper has torn an Achilles tendon and needs surgery.

Draper sustained the injury during the last quarter of the two -point victory of the bombers on the Eagles in Perth on Good Friday.

He will operate early next week.

Through a statement, the general director of the Bombers of Afl Daniel McPherson had this to say.

We are absolutely destroyed for ‘curtains’, which had a great start of the year.

He worked so hard in the course of the preseason and had started the season really strongly.

Sam is clearly an important player for us, but he is also such a loved member of this group by players, staff and fans.

We will support him through his rehabilitation.

This looks like a certified tactic for Port Adelaide.

They insist it straight forward and try to put pressure on the defense of Sydney.

They saved Jason Horne -Francis – that is all their sixth digit within 50 – but his kick missed everything.

However, Sydney will have to do something about this, or the score can become ugly.

Port Adelaide focuses on the right pocket (which is in shade this Sunday afternoon).

That time it has paid off, with the force for a long lead from Mitch Georgiades deep in the bag.

He took the stamp and then stood from a nasty perspective – and that is a great staircase, which bends back like a banana to continue!

The current lead with 7 points halfway through the quarter.

Neither of the parties looks really fluent so far.

Port Adelaide got a free deep in the right bag for Ollie -Wijnen, but his stairs went well wide.

The visitors lead a point.
