Port Adelaide Power vs Adelaide Crows Preview
No matter where these two sides are on the ladder, the Showdown is always a big deal with plenty at stake in South Australia.
Both the Power and Crows are coming off horrible losses last week and would love nothing better to get back on the winners list with a big win over their cross-town rivals.
That winner will be Port, despite exposing themselves as flat-track bullies against the Brisbane Lions (proudly sponsored by Neds) last weekend the Power return to the creature comforts of Adelaide Oval for which they have won nine of out their last 10 games at the venue.
Whilst Port cannot wear the prison-bar jumper in the Showdown, they’ll still look just as good in their regular home-kit.
Not that has anything to do with tipping the match, just more a mere observation.
With it being SAME GAME MUTLI round, we’ve gone with Port to cover the line (-29.5), Tex to kick 2+ goals, and Ollie Wines to get plenty of the Sherrin – 30+ disposals, at $6.04 its TOP VALUE for the Showdown.
