Ken Hinkley slumps to unwanted record as Adelaide romp to biggest Showdown win in history

Adelaide's Riley Thilthorpe has dominated a record 98-point belting of arch foe Port Adelaide which lifts the Crows to top spot on the AFL ladder. Thilthorpe booted three goals in a 20.13 (133) to 5.5 (35) victory on a sodden Saturday night at Adelaide Oval. The margin was the biggest in Showdown history and consigns departing Port Adelaide coach Ken Hinkley to an unwanted record in his final season. He cut a dejected figure as he walked off the field following the post-match presentations. The long-time coach now has four matches remaining before he bows out. The Crows will sleep on top of the ladder, though Collingwood will likely re-take pole position on Sunday with a win over Richmond. Adelaide will finish the round no lower than second after logging five consecutive victories for the first time under sixth-year coach Matthew Nicks. The sole blemish on Saturday night was a hamstring injury to Max Michalanney, who was substituted in the third quarter. The 201cm-tall Thilthorpe defied the heavy rain with his influential 19-disposal display featuring six clearances, and veteran Taylor Walker and Ben Keays booted three goals each. Adelaide's Jake Soligo (35 disposals) and Sam Berry (20 touches) scored two goals each. On-baller James Peatling (26, one goal) and captain and 150-gamer Jordan Dawson (21, one goal) were also prominent, while Mark Keane and Josh Worrell ruled in defence. The Power slumped to an 8-11 win-loss record and added another player to their lengthy injury list with Lachie Jones substituted because of a corked thigh. Port vice-captain Zak Butters (34 touches), Ollie Wines (25) and skipper Connor Rozee (22) battled against the tide while Jed McEntee kicked two goals. The match began bizarrely when Port's Miles Bergman roved the first bounce and launched a 50 metre kick - the wrong way. Adelaide's Darcy Fogarty marked the Bergman blunder and missed the set shot, but his side enjoyed early control. The Crows created an ominous 3.6 to 0.1 lead before Port hit back with three consecutive majors of their own - a stunning McEntee shot from a boundary line reduced their deficit to five points at quarter-time. Adelaide then produced a game-breaking burst, scoring four goals to none in the second stanza as Thilthorpe took control. The big Crow scored with an audacious 50m left-footer on the run as Adelaide crafted a 29-point half-time advantage, 7.8 to 3.3. Thilthorpe had 14 disposals, his eye-catching goal and six clearances for the half and extended his influence with the opening goal of the third quarter. The strike was the first of five goals to Port's two for the term as Adelaide led by a whopping 50 points at three quarter-time, 12.11 to 5.3. And Thilthorpe again took centre stage with the initial goal of a last term when Adelaide piled on eight goals to nil to cruise to victory and a 30-28 overall record against Port.

Free activities for young people back at Milford Waterfront

The Under the Bridge scheme in Milford Haven will run every Tuesday and Friday evening from 6pm to 8pm throughout the summer holidays, starting on July 22 and ending on August 29. Designed for young people aged 11 to 17, the sessions will take place beneath Hakin Bridge at Milford Waterfront and are intended to provide a safe, engaging environment for socialising and personal development. Emily Jones, stakeholder engagement executive at the Port of Milford Haven, said: "The number of children and young adults taking part in Under the Bridge is growing year on year, with hundreds benefiting from last summer's activities. "The Port of Milford Haven works in partnership with Milford Youth Matters to help provide a safe and enjoyable waterway for everyone, and to create opportunities that support a vibrant and prosperous community in Pembrokeshire. "The amazing work done by Milford Youth Matters has been supported by the port for almost a decade, and we can really see and feel the difference being made by this charity at Milford Waterfront. "We encourage all young people to come down and take part in these fun sessions." The scheme offers a variety of free activities including sport, creative workshops, volunteering opportunities and games, along with refreshments and a safe space to relax. It is a joint project between Milford Youth Matters and the Port of Milford Haven, created to offer positive alternatives for young people and reduce antisocial behaviour in the area. Last year, more than 220 young people took part in the sessions, and the scheme was recognised with the Wales Outstanding Work in Community Safety Award from StreetGames. Dayle Gibby, Milford Youth Matters coordinator and organiser of Under the Bridge, said: "It's fantastic that Milford Youth Matters and the Port of Milford Haven have teamed up again to host and deliver Under the Bridge in 2025. "Year after year, there has been a profound impact on the local community through the provision of a safe, welcoming space for young people to have fun and learn, volunteer and connect. "As a detached youth programme, Under the Bridge engages young people in spaces and at times where antisocial behaviour may take place, flipping that potential into something fun, insightful and developmental." No booking is required to take part in the sessions.

Showdowns: Hinkley loves them but won't miss them

Port Adelaide coach Ken Hinkley cherishes Showdowns, but won't miss them. Hinkley will coach against arch rival Adelaide for the 25th and final time on Saturday night. "As much as everyone says that they're good for the state, they're not so good for the coaches or the players," he told reporters on Wednesday. "There's a bit of heat on. "... When you lose in this town in a Showdown - a little bit different. You drive in dark at night, you don't go out in daylight when you lose." The Crows edge Port 29-28 overall and Hinkley, who will hand over to assistant Josh Carr at season's end, has won 11 and lost 13. Hinkley acknowledged his injury-ravaged Power would be rank underdogs against the Crows, sitting third and heading to the finals for the first time since 2017. "Without pumping them up too much, that's not something Port tend to do, they're the form team of the competition," Hinkley said. And he had nothing but admiration for Matthew Nicks, a former assistant at Port now in his sixth season as Crows coach. "He has done nothing but support me in his time with us, he went on and created his own career with some courage," Hinkley said, flanked by Nicks at a joint media conference at Adelaide Oval. "I have just admired the way that he's had to be as resilient as he has been. "Matthew should be so proud of what he has done, to be as strong and as gutsy as he has been, I reckon, over the last few years. "It will hurt me to say: I'm glad to see him doing well." Nicks said it would be strange when Hinkley isn't involved in a Showdown next year. "It will be ... it's an unsual feeling sitting here knowing that your opposition coach won't be there next year," Nicks said. "I learnt so much from him in the period of time I worked underneath him and it will be sad to see him go." The Crows are seeking five consecutive wins for the first time under Nicks, who dismissed growing attention on his team as a premiership contender. "It's not even something that has crossed our mind," he said. "The reality is, it's there and it's noise. "But we're just locked in, we're looking at Ken and his group, trying to work through how do we continue the form we're in. "It's not easy to keep momentum and have that belief that we have at this point in time. We know how quickly that can change."
