Preview

This game couldn’t have come at a better time for the Crows. Coming off the back of two straight losses, they face the Lions, who sit on the bottom of the ladder.

You have to feel for Brisbane, who have given their supporters hope with their style of play so far this year. It’s just a shame they have very little to show for it. Now they have to go up against a side who is on the hunt for a win, and is having questions raised about them.

It will be interesting to see if Chris Fagan decides to send somebody to Rory Sloane. In the past two weeks he has been tagged, and his impact nullified. If it happens for a third week in a row serious questions will be asked.

Adelaide will be too good in this one and should maintain their spot on top of the ladder.

Tip: Crows by 44
