From memory, stadiums are 75% in Adelaide
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Tom Rockliff will be unavailable for Port Adelaide’s Round 4 match against Richmond.

Powell-Pepper won't make his return to footy this week either.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Port's General Manager of Football, Chris Davies said, Brownlow medallist Dustin Martin was unlikely to get a hard tag.

“Dustin is the best player in the competition so there’ll be some work put into him but the way we play our game is a team defensive game when we’re defending and we know we’ll need to be at our best in order to beat Richmond on Friday night,” he said.

“I think we’ll back our group to do the job but of course the coaches need to have contingencies to curtail any player’s influence.

“We’re well aware of Martin’s potential but he’s also got a team around him that we need to be mindful of.”

Jack on AFL360 tonight said he can't wait for Friday night. He loves it when they play 'Never tear us apart' before the start and if the camera pans to him it will show him in the goalsquare singing along with it lol.

Jack also said without going into specifics that the thing we learnt from the Swans loss centred around our defence.

After last week's thrashing at the hands of the Swans, Hardwick said the reigning back-to-back premiers were ready to respond against one of their premiership challengers.

"Sydney, to their credit, had a great game. We didn't play particularly well. We can sit there and judge us on one game, but I'm a pretty proud coach of a pretty proud playing group. Judge us on the next four weeks, see how we go then," he said.

Not sure, pmac. It is hard to get tickets being the away team supporter. Virtually all the tickets have been already sold according to Ticketek.

-------------------------------------------------------------

The allocation of tickets for General Admission members and the General Public is now exhausted.

There will be a final release of tickets available on Friday 9 April from 11am.

David King’s Round 4 Picks

Port Adelaide v Richmond:

Kingy says: “I think Port will bounce back. I think Kenny (Hinkley) will have them ready to go.

“The Tigers won’t be too fussed. They’ll go over there, give their best shot but I’d be taking Port.”

Pick: Port at the line (-9.5).

https://www.sen.com.au/news/2021/04/08/david-king-makes-his-picks-for-round-4/

OVER/UNDER: Port Adelaide are going to let Dustin Martin run without an opponent tonight at Adelaide Oval, or will they?

Kane says: OVER

“Ken Hinkley said ‘we’re going to back our system in’ which gives me shudders, it gives me nightmares."

“And if you do that, he’ll make you pay. I couldn’t back against him.

"27 and three goals for Dustin Martin, tonight.”

Dwayne Russell said Todd Marshall will have a late fitness test right before the bounce and if he doesn't pass it Ladhams will replace him.

The AFL twitter account though says no late changes.
