Port Adelaide Power v Sydney Swans: AFL preview, news and how to watch live

Power v Swans preview

After five straight losses to start the season, and Ken Hinkley under immense pressure, Port Adelaide are still a hope of making finals with five wins, seven losses. But they will need every win they can get and toppling sides above them like Sydney helps.

The Swans come off the bye and Buddy Franklin is a huge in after missing the against-the-odds victory over defending premiers Melbourne Demons at the MCG, a fortnight ago.

Last time Franklin played Port at the Adelaide Oval, in June last year, he kicked four goals in a losing side.

A strong performance in the SANFL last week, with four goals, sees forward Mitch Georgiades back in the Port Adelaide side. The home team are also set to reveal their mid-season rookie Brynn Teakle to the footy world on Saturday. All the late mail here.
