It was a dour first quarter, but the Power adapted to the heavy conditions by kicking three of the first four goals.
And they should probably be further ahead than 15 points.
Their pressure has been especially good, and they convincingly lead the tackles 20-12 and contested possessions 42-35.
Port also have the edge in inside 50s 16-15, scoring shots 8-4, hitouts 10-4 and free kicks 7-5.
