Port Adelaide Power vs Melbourne Demons Preview
Port Adelaide head into this Thursday night game against Melbourne without a win to their name this season and would need a remarkable turnaround in form if they’re to upset the Demons.
Melbourne remain undefeated and look every bit as strong as they did last season.
Last time these two teams met was in Round 17 last year and it was Melbourne who won pretty comfortably.
Surely at some point Port Adelaide will start playing better football but against Melbourne I can’t see them winning.
