This is what the media had to say...
THE TEAM
“The Power snared their fourth win in a row that gave them a brief glimpse of life in the top four.” - Jennifer Phelan (afl.com.au)
“Port Adelaide is ticking off its aim to normalise winning.” - Richard Earle (The Advertiser)
“Robbie Gray, Tom Rockliff (28 touches, 12 contested) Wingard, Ollie Wines and Sam Powell-Pepper showed why Port is the No.1 ranked side for centre clearances prevailing 15-8.” - Richard Earle (The Advertiser)
CHAD WINGARD
“Chad Wingard (24 disposals, two goals) was arguably the best for the visitors.” - Riley Beveridge (afl.com.au)
JUSTIN WESTHOFF
“Sign him now. He may be the Power’s elder statesman but get pen on paper as soon as possible. Justin Westhoff is playing some of the best football of his entire career.” - Chris McDermott (The Advertiser)
JACK TRENGOVE
“These scenes in the MCG changerooms before the game were absolutely sensational.” - Sam McClure (Talking Footy)
“His perseverance has been sensational - resilient.” - Campbell Brown (Talking Footy)
“As an unashamed fan, what a pleasure it was to see Jack Trengove back on the MCG doing what he does best. An early touch would have settled his nerves and he proved he still has a game that will be of assistance to the Power when it is needed.” - Chris McDermott (The Advertiser)
DAN HOUSTON
“It felt like a breakout moment for youngster Dan Houston. The game he needed as September looms. He was solid in defence as always but added the rebound and penetration with his disposal by foot that has been missing in recent times.” - Chris McDermott (The Advertiser)
