Records threatened as Port powers over wasteful Demons
Loading Mitch Georgiades finished one goal shy of Port Adelaide's single-game individual record as the Power's post-bye reset continued to gather momentum – likely dousing Melbourne's finals hopes in the process. Georgiades had a realistic shot of enjoying a bumper double-figure day out, before ultimately settling for 7.4, on Steven May no less. Warren Tredrea (1998) and Jay Schulz (2014) jointly hold the record with eight-goal hauls in 1998 and 2014, respectively. Esava Ratugolea's seven intercept marks in the opening half also had threatened a record-book rewrite – the AFL record is 10 – while Jason Horne-Francis's 20-disposal first half lit up Adelaide Oval before a shoulder injury ended his day early. Melbourne conceded costly goals after each of the first three end-of-quarter sirens, while their method moving forward was diabolical early, allowing Ratugolea to feast on one errant entry after another. The Demons botched a chance to pinch the lead at the 10-minute mark of the second term when Christian Petracca pulled out of a chance to mark a Kane Farrell's torp, switching to the member's side deep in defence. Petracca – who sustained a lacerated spleen, four broken ribs and a punctured lung in the King's Birthday clash last year – let the ball land rather than trying for the mark back with the flight as Darcy Byrne-Jones and Sam Powell-Pepper honed in.
