Port plan to land punch on finals-bound Crows
Port Adelaide captain Connor Rozee wants to carry a broken hand into battle and land a proverbial blow on arch rival Adelaide's finals ambitions. Rozee plans to return for Saturday night's Showdown of the South Australian rivals, pending how his left hand copes with midweek training. "It will be a pain threshold sort of injury, it's a broken bone so there is always going to be a little bit there," Rozee told reporters on Monday. "We'll reassess after we finish training on Wednesday ... at the moment, the plan is to play." The 11th-placed Power are out of finals contention but the Crows will return to the playoffs for the first time since 2017. Adelaide hold third spot but are far from settled - they're one win from top spot but also one win from seventh - with Port hoping to dent their run to the finals. "That will be the plan pretty much every week from now on," Rozee said. "Any scalp that we can take will be a building block for the future. "There's always emotion in Showdowns. The Crows have been in our position ... and it has been vice versa, so we're really looking forward to this weekend. "It's always a competitive battle and anyone can win it. "There is no lack of motivation when it comes to these games ... the fact is, the intensity is much higher than alot of other games, which makes it very exciting to play in." Rozee sidestepped suggestions the looming Showdown had become the Power's biggest game of the season. "Every week is our biggest game from here on out," he said. "As I said, there's no lack of motivation for these types of games. "We aren't playing finals and it's extremely disappointing because that is what you come in to every year wanting to do, and what we have done pretty consistently for the last few years."

World Matchplay Darts 2025 schedule, time, TV channel and odds
The 2025 World Matchplay gets underway at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool on Saturday night, with the defending champion in action. Luke Humphries lifted the Phil Taylor Trophy last year, beating Michael van Gerwen 18-15 in the final. The world number one is a leading contender to claim the title again, alongside the likes of world champion Luke Littler and the bang in form Gerwyn Price. The World Matchplay is notoriously difficult to win on more than one occasion, though, with only three players ever managing multiple Matchplay titles. The Power dominated the event for so long, winning it 16 times, with only Van Gerwen (three) and Rod Harrington (two) boasting more than one title.. Humphries could join that very small club this year, as could James Wade, Gary Anderson, Peter Wright, Dimitri van den Bergh, Rob Cross and NAthan Aspinall. Littler is favourite, though, despite never winning a match in the tournament before as he lost in the opening round to MVG on debut 12 months ago. The tournament runs from Saturday July 19 to the final on Sunday July 27. Sky Sports will be showing the tournament, on Sky Sports Main Event and Action. Streaming is available on Sky Go and for non-Sky Sports subscribers through Now TV.

Power Book IV: Force Season 3 – Release date rumors, cast updates and what to expect next
By Aman Shukla Published on July 19, 2025, 17:30 IST Last updated July 19, 2025, 09:54 IST Man, Power Book IV: Force has fans buzzing! Tommy Egan's wild ride through Chicago's drug scene has kept us glued to our screens with its raw energy, crazy plot twists, and that classic Power vibe. After Season 2's jaw-dropping finale in November 2023, everyone's dying to know what's next. So, let's dive into the latest on Season 3's release date, cast changes, and what we can expect from Tommy's final chapter in the Windy City. Release Date Rumours for Power Book IV: Force Season 3 Starz gave the green light for Season 3 back in December 2023, but they're keeping the exact premiere date under wraps for now. Word is, filming started in February 2024 and wrapped up in July 2024. Joseph Sikora, our main man Tommy, hinted at a fall 2025 release, which lines up with the Power franchise's usual schedule. Think somewhere between August and November 2025—that's the sweet spot, especially since Power Book II: Ghost Season 4, Part 2 hits in September 2025, and Power Book III: Raising Kanan Season 4 is expected early next year. Starz dropped a teaser trailer on June 20, 2025, which has fans hyped and points to that fall window. Keep your eyes peeled on Starz's socials for the official date once post-production's done. Cast Updates: Who's Returning and Who's Out? Season 3 will be the final chapter for Power Book IV: Force , promising a dramatic conclusion to Tommy's Chicago saga. The core cast is expected to return, with some notable absences due to Season 2's deadly twists. Here's the rundown: Joseph Sikora as Tommy Egan : The heart of the series, Tommy is back to solidify his grip on Chicago's drug trade while facing mounting threats. Isaac Keys as Diamond Sampson : A key ally and rival, Diamond's dynamic with Tommy will likely drive much of the season's tension. Kris D. Lofton as Jenard Sampson : Diamond's brother, whose conflicts with Tommy could escalate further. Shane Harper as Vic Flynn : Vic's role as a mole for Tommy and Diamond sets up intriguing possibilities. Anthony Fleming III as JP Gibbs : Tommy's brother, whose storyline may deepen in the final season. Lucien Cambric as D-Mac : D-Mac's loyalty was cemented with a bold move in Season 2, but his actions could bring new enemies. Adrienne Walker as Shanti 'Showstopper' Page : A strategic player in Tommy's circle. Manuel Eduardo Ramirez as Miguel Garcia : Miguel's growing power will challenge Tommy's ambitions. Carmela Zumbado as Mireya Garcia : Tommy's love interest, whose fate remains uncertain after her brother's violent reaction in Season 2. Miriam A. Hyman as Stacy Marks : The U.S. Attorney is hot on Tommy's trail, raising the stakes. Michael Rainey Jr. as Tariq St. Patrick: Expected to appear in a guest role, tying Force to the broader Power universe. Notably, several characters won't return after Season 2's bloodshed, including Tommy Flanagan as Walter Flynn, Cayen Martin as Leon, Guy Van Swearingen as Uncle Paulie, and Dominic DeVore as Brendan Doyle. The fate of Lili Simmons as Claudia Flynn is uncertain after her stabbing in the Season 2 finale, but her survival could spark major drama if she returns. What to Expect in Season 3 As the final season, Power Book IV: Force Season 3 is set to deliver an explosive end to Tommy Egan's Chicago journey. The Season 2 finale, 'Power Powder Respect,' left fans with plenty of questions. Tommy's coalition is fractured, with rival gangs and the Feds closing in. Here's what we can anticipate based on teasers and the show's trajectory: Tommy's Power Struggle: Tommy's quest to become Chicago's drug kingpin will intensify. He'll need to outmaneuver rivals like Miguel Garcia while poaching customers to solidify his empire. Expect strategic alliances and betrayals as he navigates this dangerous game. Personal Stakes: Tommy's relationship with Mireya is in jeopardy after her brother's interference. The teaser hints that Tommy has moved past his initial rage, but whether Mireya is alive or dead remains a key mystery. His personal sacrifices could be a central theme. Ties to the Power Universe: With Power Book II: Ghost wrapping up in 2024, Season 3 may include crossovers, especially with Tariq St. Patrick's guest appearance. There's also buzz about a potential new spinoff, Power: Legacy , which could feature Tommy and Tariq, suggesting Season 3 might set up future stories. High-Stakes Action: Expect the signature Power mix of intense action, turf wars, and shocking deaths. Showrunner Gary Lennon has promised that Season 3 will 'question everything we thought we knew of Tommy's world,' hinting at game-changing twists. Claudia's Fate: If Claudia survives her prison stabbing, her return could shake up the Chicago underworld, especially given her betrayal in Season 2.
