Sydney Swans vs Adelaide Crows Preview
The Swans have nearly secured the minor premiership and regained some form with a solid win over the Bombers last week. Adelaide, on the other hand, fell short in the Showdown and cemented the number four pick in the draft.
With little at stake for Sydney, their lineup is uncertain, but they’re likely to maintain their potent forward line, which remains their biggest weapon. Adelaide will be motivated, with players eager to prove themselves during contract extension periods, making them a potential threat.
Both teams favor free-flowing, offensive football, which could lead to a high-scoring affair. Adelaide’s transitional play might challenge Sydney, but the Swans have shown they can absorb pressure and respond effectively.
Sydney has won the last five encounters, with Adelaide’s last victory at the SCG in 2019. The Swans will aim to maintain momentum heading into finals, avoiding a return to their recent poor form.
