We take a look at the five big questions ahead of our Round 19 game against Port Adelaide at the Gabba on Saturday.
Can the Lions back it up?
Coming off a win against the Bombers last weekend, the Lions will be looking to back it up against Port Adelaide at the Gabba on Saturday night.
Last week the Senior players stood tall, with Daniel Rich being named in the AFL’s team of the week, and Tom Rockliff being named Player of the Round. If the Lions are to upset the Power, they will need a repeat effort from their stars.
The boys will also want to continue their form in front of goal, after last week kicking with a 74% efficiency - this was their best performance in front of goal for the year.
Who will Mitch Robinson take?
He’s quickly becoming one of the best taggers in the league, and last week he was arguably at his best against Essendon football magnet David Zaharakis, keeping him to just 13 disposals.
Will Port Adelaide tag Daniel Rich?
Last weekend we saw a Season best performance from Daniel Rich, who finished the game with 27 disposals, 10 inside 50s and this HUGE goal…

Rich has the ability to really dominate the opposition, so it will be interesting to see if Port Adelaide sends anyone directly to him.
Can the Mozzies get off the chain?
The three members of the Mozzie Squad are back together with Lewis Taylor returning from injury. The Mozzies are dangerous and have the ability to stamp their authority on the scoreboard.
With a tall forward line, expect to see Taylor, Josh Green and Dayne Zorko at the feet of the likes of Michael Close, Josh Walker and Eric Hipwood.
The AFL has listed Josh Green as Port Adelaide’s ‘Bogeyman’, saying: "The small forward plays his best footy against the Power. In round seven last season he registered three goals."
How will Port Adelaide respond?
Port Adelaide will be looking to bounce back after last week’s loss at home to the GWS GIANTS.
Port Adelaide looked the winners for the first two-and-a-half quarters before the GIANTS lifted to win 9.6 (60) - 11.13 (79).
