Sydney Swans experienced their worst defeat since 1993, a 112-point loss to Port Adelaide.

Sydney Swans suffered a crushing 112-point loss to Port Adelaide, their worst defeat since 1993 and fifth-worst in the club's VFL/AFL history. Coach John Longmire criticized his team's performance, calling it "utterly unacceptable," as they were held scoreless for nearly two quarters and trailed in key statistics. Port Adelaide led with seven goals to none in the opening quarter, and the Swans now face crucial final three home and away rounds against Collingwood, Essendon, and Adelaide to regain their form before the finals.
