Melbourne Demons vs Port Adelaide Preview

It’s been a season straight from hell and the Dees mental strength and resilience will once again be tested against a ravaging Port Adelaide outfit.

Not too often you can say you beat the ladder-leaders by 112 points, but the Power did that, crushing the Swans and possibly their season.

Their speed out of the stoppages has made them so deadly in the past few weeks, and their rapidness moving it inside 50 really tests out the opposition defence.

Melbourne has been lacklustre around the contest and don’t really seem to be sparking a lot of defensive output.

Their inside 50 count is in the bottom five of the competition, and without any forward consistency, they’ve struggled to kick winning scores at times.

Port Adelaide still has defensive issues of their own to work out ahead of finals, and their ability to defend over the top transition still needs to be accounted for.

Whether the Dees can exploit that is hard to say, especially on such a wide MCG ground where they like to play quite wide in transition.

Earlier in the year, the Dees went to Adelaide and got home by seven points, punishing Port’s inaccuracy after being smashed around the contests.

The Power were arguably much worse back then and still dominated the contest, so it’s hard to see the Demons recouping the same fortunes from that night this week.
