Port Adelaide host Melbourne in Round 23 of the 2026 AFL season at Adelaide Oval on Saturday, 15th August at 8:10pm AEST. Read on for our full match preview, betting tips, and best odds.
Just beat the ladder leaders, no worries.
The Dees are low flying at this point in the season and can go one step further to securing a top four spot when they take on Port Adelaide at the Adelaide Oval on Saturday night.
Kozzie was unreal with 27 disposals and two goals, leading his side to victory and into $23 for the premiership.
Things don’t look any better for Port, who have now lost five on the trot, when you consider Jason Horne-Francis could be out for the rest of the season with a hyperextended knee.
To their credit, Port has covered the line in each of its last six home matches against teams on a winning streak, but it’s hard to see them making any in-roads against the Dees without Butters, Rozee and now the Horney one.
