Winner: South Australia
Both Adelaide teams got great wins over the weekend with Port Adelaide stopping Collingwood in their tracks and Adelaide making light work of St Kilda at the Adelaide Oval.
The Crows and Power now sit 8th and 9th respectively and both will be looking to play a part in September. Adelaide are on a three-game winning streak with a massive game with West Coast to come, this Saturday night and Port Adelaide have now recorded back-to-back wins against fellow finals aspirants Melbourne and Collingwood, with the Dogs to come.
Both teams at their best are explosive outfits and canย cause damage to the top sides in the competition. The top-eight is just about set but these two could potentially play-off for the final spot which is sure to be a great spectacle asย the season unfolds.
Loser: Collingwood
Are we off the Collingwood bandwagon now? For some reason, following their loss to the Bulldogs in round 10, Collingwood were talked up as the only bottom ten team that win the flag if they make finals. What better way to convince us all than losing to Port Adelaide by 67 points at home.
To make matters worst, 28, 567 fans turned up. The club's lowest MCG crowd since 2004. I've concluded they won't play finals and their list is not as good as everyone is making it about to be.
Who would have thought that heading into the Queens Birthday match, Collingwood would be clear underdogs.
