There's some great scalps': Power wary of lowly Tigers
Power coach Ken Hinkley is wary of the lowly, injury-hit Tigers
By AAP
19 July 2034
PORT Adelaide coach Ken Hinkley has been around footy long enough to sense the danger.
He's wary of a wet slog against an injury-hit opponent when the Power host Richmond on Saturday night.
With a bleak forecast at Adelaide Oval, and Port in a ladder logjam, Hinkley is on alert despite the Tigers languishing in last place with just two wins.
"It's a transitional period for them as a football club," Hinkley said of the Tigers and first-year coach Adem Yze.
"Adem has come in and he's new and there's a lot of change that has gone on at Richmond this year."
But Hinkley pointed to the Tigers' wins this season as reason for Port to be worried.
"They have won over here in Adelaide (against the Crows)," he said.
"They have beaten Sydney – there's some great scalps.
"They have got their own issues with injuries, we have had a lot of injuries.
"You have just got to be ready for their absolute best. And the conditions we may come up against may really suit the way Richmond play."

Port Adelaide v Richmond Preview
Andrew Slevison
SEN
19 July 2024
Port Adelaide missed the chance to move into the top four by losing to the Suns on the Gold Coast last week.
The 14-point loss has them sitting ninth ahead of Round 19 and in desperate need of four points to push back into the finals muck.
They get a great opportunity against a travelling Richmond side that has lost four in a row during which time they have failed to get within four goals of their opposition.
While the last win from Adem Yze’s Tigers did come against the Crows at the Adelaide Oval in Round 13, this situation seems a little different in that Ken Hinkley’s Power are challenging for a spot in the eight.
The last time the two sides met was at the MCG in Round 2 when Port trailed at half-time before eventually shaking the Tigers off to win by 30 points. The Tigers scored 92 that day which stands as their highest score so far this season. The Power piled on 18.14 with Todd Marshall booting four.
Richmond has been conceding big numbers to opposition midfielders this year which bodes well for Connor Rozee, Zak Butters, Ollie Wines and Jason Horne-Francis. The Tigers lose the concussed Tim Taranto which leaves their on-ball unit weakened drastically. That is where Port can assert their authority on the contest.
The Tigers were much improved against the Giants last week but conceded 17.6 from 36 inside 50s which does show they are vulnerable at the back if the ball is moved quickly.
With much more on the line, the fact they’re playing at home, a much more damaging midfield and against an opponent that has scored the fewest points competition-wide in 2024, the Power should be getting the job done comfortably.
A spot in the eight is up for grabs and the Power should deliver for their hungry fans.
Tip: Port Adelaide by 33 points.

Sonsie is the sub tonight.
Prestia with the first goal :gotigers.
-
Short turnover tally: 1
-
How do you leave Rozee by himself in Port's F50?! :facepalm.
-
Shai saved that goal chance getting through 3 tackles after that dropped mark by Green. Kosi goals :gotigers
12 - 6
-
KMac playing as 2nd tall/key forward
Seriously, don't understand why we haven't done this more
-
How do you leave Rozee by himself in Port's F50?! :facepalm.
Trezise had him but was nowhere kept too much space on that occasion.
-
Short's high floater is marked right on the boundary line by Mansell 40 out. Rushed.
13 - 7
-
Short turnover tally: 2
-
Hopper beautiful side step by 2 then shocking decision results in PA goal.
-
Shai Bolton just do the basics FFS
-
I think Hopper is leading the turnover tally :help
-
Browny did well then with the tap but Kosi too slow trying to pick it up instead of just kicking it off the ground.
14 - 14
-
Samson contested mark 40 out. Then shanks it and doesn't score. No Tiger to contest on the line either.
-
Ryan is just a nothing player. Hopeless. :help.
I don't see anything
-
Our midfield-forward connection and decision making as dumb as ever. We should be 3 goals up if we were half decent.
-
Kosi you D Head.
-
Brainless footy has us behind on the scoreboard again despite having more inside 50s.
Broad OOTF plus Kosi punching it while over the line = Port goal :banghead.
-
Baker :banghead :banghead
-
Well thank you for early Chrissy gift Port :lol.
Mansell with the spoil, intercept and goal :gotigers.
21 - 20
-
Well done Mansell :clapping
-
That was really poor by young Smith
You cannot lose your feet and then take too long to get up while his opponent takes off
Cost us a goal
-
Brown fwd is interesting. Been struggling to make an impact for a few months now. Not sure where his best position is
-
All things considered not a bad qtr
Let's be totally honest no one is expecting us to win, would think most on here expect us to get thumped so with that in mind we're doing OK
And despite one certain posters might think we have a very young side out there tonight
-
Quarter time
Richmond 3.3-21
Port Adel. 4.2-26
Goals: Mansell, Koschitzke, Prestia.
Once again more inside 50s but behind on the scoreboard because of Auskick errors and decision making at both ends of the ground.
Port's goals from our basic errors:
- Failure to man up on their captain inside their F50.
- OOTF kick under no pressure followed by dopey 50.
- Losing your feet meekly leaving your direct opponent to waltz inside their F50.
-
Nice how it works when your actually clean and make the right decisions.
Dan Rioli :gotigers
27 - 26
-
Brown fwd is interesting. Been struggling to make an impact for a few months now. Not sure where his best position is
I like Brown. Looks a likely type. Expecting a great career.
-
Rioli kicks a great goal
Then does a Short and kicks it straight to the opposition
-
Our forwards are lazy. Ballwatching.
-
Rozee on his own again. :help
-
Let's not man up on Rozee again when he's inside Port's F50 :facepalm.
-
Port bloke plays on and the ump says nah...50
Effen stand rule strikes again
-
Mansell :gotigers
33 - 28
-
Mansell looking good tonight.
-
Port bloke plays on and the ump says nah...50
Effen stand rule strikes again
Stand rule only designed to be used to penalise us.
-
Another Port goal from our own stupidity and turnovers ::).
-
Rozee just too good for Trezise.
-
Man get tresize off rozee
-
If we kicked the ball after the whistle it would be 50.
-
Mansell should have marked that.
35 - 34
-
This is crap footy by us.
-
Pathetic by Prestia
Senior player and doesn't attack the ball. Sends a shocking message
And as equally pathetic has been the "efforts" of Koschitzke
-
Dow poohed his shorts then
-
Green lace out to Campbell 40 out. Goal! :gotigers
41 - 43
-
Campbell goals :clapping
Great pass Steely Greene
-
We turn the easy into the difficult. Kmac misses.
42 - 43
-
Another Port goal from our Auskick skills because Kosi and Dow couldn't link simply by hand :facepalm.
-
Disgraceful by Ryan :scream :banghead
Just stood there had to attack Ratagalea or however you spell it
Just stood did nothing
And people wonder why he gets criticised
-
Another Port goal from our Auskick skills because Kosi and Dow couldn't link simply by hand :facepalm.
That was on Dow not Kosi. Kosi made the right decision
-
Geez we're a dumb side :lol. Lucky to not give up two in the last minute.
-
Another Port goal from our Auskick skills because Kosi and Dow couldn't link simply by hand :facepalm.
That was on Dow not Kosi. Kosi made the right decision
That's true. Dow was half sleep.
-
Wtf was nank thinking handballing straight to that port dude with 20 seconds to go?
F me
-
I don’t think nank thinks he just does. Its very evident
-
Wtf was nank thinking handballing straight to that port dude with 20 seconds to go?
F me
Does it week after week. Just lucky that time it didn't cost us.
That's why I'm so critical of him. For all the good stuff, it is those moments that do so much damage and takes away from the really good
-
Half-time
Richmond 3.3 6.6-42
Port Adel. 4.2 7.8-50
Goals: Mansell 2, Koschitzke, Prestia, D.Rioli, Campbell.
6 Port goals from our basic errors:
- Failure to man up on their captain inside their F50.
- OOTF kick under no pressure (Broad) followed by dopey 50 (Kosi).
- Losing your feet meekly (Smith) leaving your direct opponent to waltz inside their F50.
- Trezise indecisiveness in D50 and then Baker getting pinged.
- Aimless long bomb from our kick-in straight to Thatcher.
- Dow being half asleep misses Kosi's simple handpass.
-
Dow :banghead
-
Players who definitely won't make it and are cringe to watch;
Dow - can't even execute a handpass most of the time. Don't know if he can kick because he doesn't. :help
Kosiskche - it's embarrassing he is playing AFL footy. :help :help
Ryan - he's the epitome of cringe, I feel like wanting to climb under my bed in second hand embarrassment when I watch him play. :help :help :help
-
Short turnover tally: 4
-
What the hell was that decision making at HF? Seriously? :banghead
Then Trezise loses his feet against Willy Rioli and they get out the back again :banghead.
-
Trezise is a dud.... :shh
-
if we're clean and choose the obvious option we can open them up. Problem is that's rare.
Short to Bolton 40 out. Goal! :gotigers
49 - 56
-
Trezise is a dud.... :shh
I don’t know if I’m being harsh or it’s a case of having my mind already made up without giving him a fair go but I just don’t see how he stays on our list next season.
-
Again WTF is that in D50?!
-
Add another to the list of Port goals from our own stupid brainfade turnovers ::).
-
Jeez Campbell mixes a lotta dumb shyte in with his good stuff..... :banghead
-
Short turnover tally: 4
Might need to start one of these for
1/ Nank and
2/ Broad
-
Jeez Campbell mixes a lotta dumb shyte in with his good stuff..... :banghead
Just like a few others
Maybe he's taking his lead from our Captain :rollin
-
That was a great kick by Kmac. Opened up the ground. Shai's grubber worked and Green gets out the back for the goal :gotigers.
55 - 62
-
Once again WTF was that at HF? Baker runs himself into trouble and then off to Kmac who turns it over trying to thread the needle.
-
Jeez Campbell mixes a lotta dumb shyte in with his good stuff..... :banghead
Just like a few others
Maybe he's taking his lead from our Captain :rollin
According to some he's in career best form..... :joker
-
Well Mansell has just won goal of the week with that :gotigers.
61 - 63
-
Mansell. Some indigenous black magic right there. :clapping
-
That was a sweet team goal lol.
Kids are great.
Enjoying Steely
-
That was a sweet team goal lol.
Kids are great.
Enjoying Steely
Yeah, enjoying the Cubs
Bloody young side out there tonight, games wise not age wise
-
Dumb free by Samson when we had the numbers.
But thanks ump for pointing the wrong way ::).
-
We get back in the game and Samson Ryan gives a soft free to Dixon
Momentum killer
-
Bolton is the dumbest player in the afl. Nank is a close second
-
Tackling at this club is diabolical. Side stepped by a slow, unco ruckman for goodness sake.
-
And then a down field free ::).
All that good work thrown away.
-
Shai Bolton again gives away a stupid free
Every game, on queue :clapping
-
Get the fork out folks
-
Watch the freaking hips Tiges :banghead
-
Ralphshyte hears footsteps again..... :shh
-
LOL "not 15".
Dan Rioli kicks a great goal anyway :gotigers.
68 - 82
-
Short, seriously why keep it in?
-
Our ball movement has been really good at times. Great to see
-
Kmac :gotigers
74 - 82
If we cut out all the stupid brainfades we can win this.
-
Short, seriously why keep it in?
That free shows everything wrong with the game right now. Player going for the balls, stops it from rolling out and therefore keeping it in play, tackled immediately while on the floor hard up against boundary line. Holding the ball is the decision :huh
-
Zero composure from Short at the end.
-
Another brainless play. Hugo why play on in D50 with 30 secs to go? Where was the manning up on JHF inside F50? Lucky not to cost a goal after a goal after siren.
-
Absolutely stupid by Hugo
30 seconds to go you don't go long down the line to contest when you have so many back in D50 protecting space :banghead
Lucky not gift them another one of stock standard junk time goals
-
So many dumb players. I hope after another pre season yze can sort the men out from the boys. Look so unorganised at times, very reminiscent of hardwicks first few years. What’s the difference ? Back then we had elite talent developing in reiwoldt, cotch, dusty, edwards, rance etc. not sure we have anywhere near that talent now
-
Too many softcox & panic merchants... :scared
-
3/4 time
Richmond 3.3 6.6 11.8-74
Port Adel. 4.2 7.8 12.12-84
Goals: Mansell 3, D.Rioli 2, Bolton, Koschitzke, Prestia, Campbell, McIntosh, Green.
10 Port goals from our basic errors:
- Failure to man up on their captain inside their F50.
- OOTF kick under no pressure (Broad) followed by dopey 50 (Kosi).
- Losing your feet meekly (Smith) leaving your direct opponent to waltz inside their F50.
- Trezise indecisiveness in D50 and then Baker getting pinged.
- Aimless long bomb from our kick-in straight to Thatcher.
- Dow being half asleep misses Kosi's simple handpass.
- Trezise slipping and allowing Willy Rioli to get goal side.
- Team brainfade across HF.
- Samson dumb free.
- Bolton down field free.
-
Zero composure from Short at the end.
In fairness to Short who's been dreadful again the ball amd we should have never been in that position
Blame Hugo for that mess
-
Sonsie subbed on for Nank (copped a knock).
-
Nank subbed out
-
Balta pushed in the back and no free ::).
-
Umps :banghead
-
Broady, seriously?
-
Kaleb Smith will learn but late in 3rd a d just now has pulled up in contest not willing to take body contact, costly both times
-
Broads cooked
-
Flood gates about to blow open.
-
Jeez you can always rely on McIntosh to lose a crucial contest..... :banghead
-
Too many passengers now. Run, numbers and pressure has all dried up.
-
Kmac misses on the run.
75 - 101
-
Can’t believe we’ve given Samson 3 years. He’s vickery 2.0 but worse somehow.
Brown needs a spell in the vfl to get some confidence and form. Bring in Bauer.
-
Soft from Balta not putting pressure on Ingrid Bergman then..... :banghead
-
Koshyteski is utterly useless.... :thumbsdown
-
This is where I get frustrated and hugely disappointed
At 3qtr time we were in the hunt but again we've run out of puff and that's a fitness issue
Again we've been let down by our senior players who will get named in the best because of the number of possessions not the quality of them
-
Just stuffing retire already Broad..... :banghead
-
We can’t defend for poo, just not urgent enough or smart enough.
-
Bad contest by broad but look how port just transitioned the ball with ease, was 3v1 running along the wing to kick un pressured to a 1v1 in their deep fwd 50. No structure from us at all… concerning
-
Samson Ryan… sheesh, bloke does not have a competitive bone in his body.
-
Just rolled over in this last quarter with Nank off. Kosi and Samson have had mares.
-
That was stupid by Noah!
But you knew Short would never half that contest… just fall over!
-
Just rolled over in this last quarter with Nank off. Kosi and Samson have had mares.
Did we though?
Saying that gives Luke and his fitness team an out. We aren't fit enough to run out games
-
Back to real bad old days where can't even kick consolation goals in junk time.... :shh
-
Final Score
Richmond 3.3 6.6 11.8 11.9-75
Port Adel. 4.2 7.8 12.12 16.20-116
Goals: Mansell 3, D.Rioli 2, Bolton, Koschitzke, Prestia, Campbell, McIntosh, Green.
0.1 to 4.8 in the last :help.
Bring on the draft.
-
Watching hawks today made me realise even more so how far off we are. They’ve been bad for 4-5 years now and they’re literally just coming good and that’s quick. Team full of youngsters, exciting players. We have so much pain to go still. They traded Mitchel and omeara to give their young guys opportunity and we need to make the same tough calls with the likes of hopper, short, broad, Graham and the list goes on and on.
-
Richmond basically just gave up in the last quarter

Meehan needs to go but the clowns running our so-called fitness program aren't the only problem. Standards have dropped across the board. Our skills, decision making and tackling technique are all just embarrassing.

Looking forward to pick one and the options it opens

Yet never finished last. They have recruited very well.
Yet some think they made an error in getting rid of those players. 4/5 years isn't bad for a team that supposedly did the wrong thing.
Our issue is who is going to give us a first rounder for any of those players you mentioned. None.
Guys like Graham, iMac, are just clogging our list now and have to go.

Yep, it will take the rest of this decade just to get our list back into decent shape and that's if we nail most of our draft picks as we did b/w 2006-2009 when we picked up Jack, Sheds, Cotch, Rance, Dusty, Astbury and Grimes.

It’s not about the picks you get in return, it’s about getting them off the list so the young guys get opportunity to play. If I recall correctly they didn’t get much at all in return for Mitchell and omeara. I suppose our problem right now is we don’t really have any young guys to play in the mud besides McAuliffe who is yet to be proven. After this years draft/trade period it could be another sorry though. So cut the dead wood and make room I say
-
My biggest fear is we overrate our list, under value the draft and can't bring ourselves to make the really hard decisions - stuff I'm hearing from the club or at least the hints they're dropping gives me vibes of the Spud & Wallace years....especially when you here rumours that we're into the likes of Will Phillips... #cherryripe #locked&loaded :help
-
Just on tackling I read in yesterday's HUN that Yze said he was going to be speaking to Melbourne storm about helping us improve our tackling especially in light of the mess that is how tackling os umpired these days
-23 in tackles tonight despite losing by almost 7 goals. Dimma had to the learn the hard way (2013-2016) that a gameplan not based on tackling and defence is a flawed one that gets exposed. Yze needs to go back to first principles over the off-season and focus on defence first which includes proper tackling technique.
-
Just on tackling I read in yesterday's HUN that Yze said he was going to be speaking to Melbourne storm about helping us improve our tackling especially in light of the mess that is how tackling os umpired these days
Well I've banged on about this more than anyone for the last 4 years so this is great news if true and a start - but did he really need a year to figure that out , it's been a major issue since '21 and all he had to do was watch the tapes because it stands out like dog's balls....shoulda been addressed in his first pre-season, in fact it shoulda been priority 1, 2 & 3.... :shh
-
I enjoyed watching Smith and Green.
Trezise is a good size but didn't get a great look at him.
Obviously think we have a player in Campbell that's been clear most of the season.
On the downside
Short - trade, hopeless
Kmac - retire. I've been a big supporter for years but his constant slipping over and flailing his arms around like he's off balance drove me nuts
Broad - finished, had a good career, thanks for the 5 medals
Ryan - peeweak, lazy, gutless, no effort after the ruck contact most of the time. I'd love to get in the ring with him.

Hawks monstered this trade. Who knows who that second rounder ended up being but it was a very nice deal for them.
-
These games really mean nothing. Season died ages ago. All we need to see are signs. I'm optimistic, we have a bunch of great kids. Some duds like sonsie and Dow, but We have some special talent in many of these kids. Next year with a fit team we'll be much better. No room for list cloggers like Broad, Short, Kmac etc.. we'll be ok, this season has been a write off.. but I'm confident we will rebound fast. If we had Lynch out there today, just Lynch we would have won, but we don't want to win ATM. It's all about the draft.
-
Just stuffing retire already Broad..... :banghead
He had a shocker, thinking he may be done
-
I think I have now seen a big enough body of work from our team to say with a degree of confidence that we are competitive for at least 75% of all games and that just maybe the younger legs in our team are not able to see games out just yet

4/5 years?
When did they win the last one. It will be 10 years next year. :rollin
-
And they are 11th,
-
4-5 years since they started rebuilding. Similar to us we haven’t won since 2020
But haven’t really started rebuilding yet.
And yes they’re 11th but I said they’ve literally JUST started to turn it around.
-
The system is designed to make sides as equal as possible so we are a victim of our success , I have to agree that we got our list management wrong , Hardwick and others were wrong thinking we were good enough to pinch another premiership, but that should always be what a club should be aiming for. We are always right in hindsight . I don’t mind be on the bottom as it hopefully means we rebound a lot quicker, those with good memories will remember being a nothing side for 37 years and finishing in the middle , that was worse for me , a nothing side .
-
Hawks are fools gold imo.
I would bet a hefty amount that they win less games next year and finish in a worse position. I just don’t see anywhere near the elite talent required to be a serious threat.
Ofcourse that could change if they get some players in via trade or free agency.

Dawks remind me of us and our many false dawns pre-17.... :shh

AFL Report Card: Round 19
Foxsports
22 July 2024
RICHMOND
Credit to the Tigers, who were brave against Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval before fading away in the fourth quarter. Missing a host of veterans including injured trio Nick Vlastuin, Tim Taranto, Jack Graham all casualties at selection, Adem Yze’s side really took it to the Power and will take positives away from it with renewed competitiveness and fight. It comes ahead of one of Richmond’s most winnable games in some time this week against the out-of-form Magpies.
In the votes
Daniel Rioli had one of his best games this year booting two goals from 28 disposals across half back. Shai Bolton (17 touches) had some bright moments splitting his time between midfield and forward.
Room for improvement
While the Tigers were competitive, they still got smashed in contested possessions (-23) and clearances (-16) to give up territory and field position (-20 inside 50s).

Another late fadeout from the Tigers

Richmond has been quite competitive for the most part over the past few weeks.
They were good value against the Giants last weekend and were on the tail of the Power for more than three quarters on Saturday night.
They trailed by 10 points at three-quarter time but were found out late once again, conceding 4.8 in the final term while managing just a behind of their own.
Adem Yze’s Tigers are 3-15 in final terms this year, conceding on average 25 point per fourth quarter while scoring just 12 themselves.
The effort and intensity has generally been good early in games before fading out badly at the business end.
From a positive viewpoint, Daniel Rioli was absolutely excellent with 28 disposals, a massive 631 metres gained, 10 intercept possessions and kicked two goals in a damaging display off half-back.
Up the other end it was Rhyan Mansell who was the shining light with three goals from 12 touches, seven marks, six score involvements and four inside 50s.
