When: 16:40 | Sunday 03/06/2018
Where: Adelaide Oval
Preview:
Adelaide have done well to cover their injuries so far but last week suggested the dam wall may have broken in their hefty loss against the Demons.
The Crows usually respond very strongly to bad losses, so I’d expect the same this week.
GWS have a lot of injuries and it’s a small excuse but their effort hasn’t been up to standard either.
If they lose this week, I don’t think they can make the finals.
KEY BATTLE: Daniel Talia v Jeremy Cameron
Adelaide’s best defender up against the Giants spearhead.
The Verdict
Crows rarely lose at Adelaide Oval and I’d expect they will respond strongly on Sunday.
GWS has a 1-5 (16.7 percent) record at the Adelaide Oval since 2014.

AFL News:
Adelaide coach Don Pyke is confident star duo Rory Sloane and Tom Lynch will remain at the AFL club.
Both fall off-contract at season’s end and are targets of Melbourne-based clubs but Pyke says both want to stay at the Crows.
“We have got two players we want to keep, two players who want to be at the footy club and we’re working towards finding suitable arrangements for both of them,” he told reporters on Wednesday.
“If there is something to announce and inform you on, we will let you know.”
Sloane’s season has been cruelled by two separate foot injuries – he has missed the pasr six games and remains about three weeks from resuming.
“We continue to talk to Rory, I am not going to engage in a conversation about what ifs,” Pyke said.
“I am confident in that space.”
Sloane and Lynch, both Victorians, are in the sights of several Melbourne-based clubs.
Linkman Lynch reportedly travelled to Melbourne recently to house-hunt, fuelling speculation he could be on the move.
Pyke said he was more concerned with the short-term, rather than long-term, after suffering his heaviest loss as Adelaide coach – a 91-point belting from Melbourne.
But he said he would keep the faith in his players despite their Alice Springs horror show.
“You have got to be really careful in this game of jumping at shadows,” Pyke said.
“I have got a lot of faith and belief in the playing group, players that we have had this year have performed really well at times.
“We have had some poor performances, the Collingwood and Melbourne games stand out, we learn from that.
“We’re going to continue to develop and we’re going to get some opportunities for younger guys who are playing.
“That’s unfortunately what we got last week but a week is a long time in footy.”
