Port Adelaide Two wins in a Row - AFL 2006 -

Port Adelaide has strung together successive wins for the first time this season after the Power outclassed Carlton 17.16 (118) to 12.12 (84) at Telstra Dome on Sunday.

The 34-point margin flattered the Blues as Port had the game in its keeping from early in the second quarter when the margin was 50 points, with Carlton trailing by 65 points late in the third before outscoring the visitors eight goals to two in the final term.

The Coaches Said :

Port coach Mark Wiliams said "They played particularly well. It was great coming back, and coming back to Telstra after last week's win. It was nice to think that the young players I thought played particularly well and got some good opportunities."

"Quite a few of the senior players led the way and gave them some nice touches."I thought (Jacob) Surjan played well again, (Steven) Salopek played well, (Troy) Chaplin did a good job, (Brad) Symes. He was under an injury cloud until today and I thought it was good for them,"

he said."(Danyle) Pearce continues to move up the charts. It's a nice thing for the people in Adelaide looking back and seeing our club moving on, which is good."

Denis Pagan said "The last three weeks we've been terrible at the start, (but) we get together and they're able to take a step back and see the issues that are causing them concern and then we go," he said."It's still very disappointing - our start to the game - and you know the side that's in front at quarter-time has probably got a 75 per cent chance of winning."

CARLTON: 3.2, 4.5, 6.8, 12.12 (84)
PORT ADELAIDE: 8.4, 13.8, 15.14, 17.16 (118)

GOALS – Port Adelaide: Ebert 3, C Cornes 2, Lade 2, Dew 2, Thurstans 2, Lonie, Surjan, Ezard, Salopek, Mahoney, Chaplin

BEST – Adelaide: C Cornes, K Cornes, Salopek, S Burgoyne, Pearce, Dew, Lonie, Ebert

INJURIES – Port Adelaide: White (shoulder)

Port Power looses to Collingwood - AFL Blog


The loss for the Power continues a disappointing pattern for the side that hasn't won two consecutive games this year, as well as revealing that captain Warren Tredrea is struggling to return from a knee injury.

For the Power, NAB Rising Star nominee Danyle Pearce was good in patches but it was Kane Cornes who fought the hardest for the visitors, with the gun midfielder closely supported by Peter Walsh.

It was high scoring first term with 10 goals on the board by quarter-time - Collingwood slightly more accurate with six straight majors to Port's 4.1.

The Power looked to be in trouble with injuries early on with Tredrea benching himself and Chad Cornes seemingly suffering a broken nose, but both returned later in the term - Tredrea contributing with a late goal courtesy of a free kick in the goal square.

O'Bree kicked his second goal to give the Pies a one-point buffer going into half-time - the quarter summed up as a low-scoring and frustrating arm-wrestle with the ball rebounding quickly from end to end.

It was a captain's goal by Buckley that started proceedings in the third term, sparking eight-straight goals to get the Pies out to a 48-point lead in only 20 minutes of play.

Port got the first goal of the final stanza with Kane Cornes contributing, and with Tredrea closely following with a second, the visitors looked half a chance of sparking some match-winning momentum.

But the Pies, while not quite as dominant on the scoreboard as in their stunning third term, rallied and put to bed any hope of a Power revival.

Despite the eventual winning margin, Port Adelaide coach Mark Williams felt his side had competed well in most areas, but was stung by an inability to curb Collingwood's third-term scoring spree.

COLLINGWOOD: 6.0, 8.2, 16.6, 18. 12 (120)
PORT ADELAIDE: 4.1, 7.7, 8.9, 11.13 (79)

GOALS – Port Adelaide: Tredrea 2, P.Burgoyne 2, Walsh, Dew, Lade, Lonie, Pearce, Salopek, K.Cornes
BEST – Port Adelaide: Walsh, K.Cornes, Lade, C.Cornes, Salopek, Pearce

The Port Adelaide Football Club - Port Power -

Port Power has started the season a little shakey gut should gather some confidence and spring back towards the middle of the season, with Warren Tredrea coming back against the Saints on Monday night should put up a fight and if they loose will be three losses and one win, not the ideal start to the season.

Will the Power find there winning form of recent times? this season is going to be full of surprises and Port will need a big fight back should they loose to the Sainters?

Go Port.
