Ahead of this weekend's game against Port Adelaide at the Gabba, we take a look at the main men to watch.
Daniel Rich
The Brisbane Lions' upset win over the Power in 2015 was thanks to their midfield. The injured Dayne Beams was best on ground with 32 disposals and one goal while Daniel Rich collected 23 touches. After a season best performance last weekend, can Rich back it up against Port Adelaide on Saturday? The 26-year-old finished with 27 possessions and 10 inside 50s against Essendon.

The Power can't afford to let the Lions vice-captain roam free on the Gabba with former Sandover Medallist and fellow West Austalian Kane Mitchell likely to carry the role on Rich.
Mitch Robinson
The 26-year-old is no stranger to run-with roles. Robinson has been commended in 2016 for his strong series of negating roles on some of the competition’s in-form midfielders - Matt Priddis, Lachie Neale, Bryce Gibbs and Sam Mitchell to name a few. Arguably Robinson's best performance to date was his run-with role on Bryce Gibbs, holding the Blues star to just 12 possessions while racking up 25 himself, 15 of them contested, and laying eight tackles.
Lewis Taylor
Lewy Taylor played one of his best games of the 2015 season to finish with 28 disposals and a goal against Port Adelaide the last time the two teams met at the Gabba in Round 7, 2015.
Taylor has missed the best part of a fortnight with an ankle injury, but got through main training today and if selected in the Lions' final 22 could prove dangerous to Port Adelaide's defence.
Brad Ebert
The former West Coast Eagles midfielder kicked four goals against the Giants last weekend playing off half forward. As one of the Power's leaders, expect Ebert to come out firing at the Gabba on Saturday night.
Robbie Gray
The Power's two-time reigning John Cahill Medal champion has had an impressive 2016. Gray has polled AFL Coaches Association votes in 10 of his 14 games, and has continued to dominate the midfield. From 25 disposals against GWS last weekend, Gray also chipped in with a handy three goals. He'll be one to watch on Saturday.
