Western Bulldogs vs Fremantle Dockers Preview
They might be fighting for a spot in the eight, but the Crows proved yet again that they belong in the finals conversation after losing another nail-biter to Collingwood last week.
It was a game Adelaide probably deserved to win, but controversy aside, Matthew Nicks must be pleased with his sides overall effort from start to finish, led by another masterful performance from Jordan Dawson.
North, meanwhile, returns from the bye looking to snap a horror 12-game losing streak that dates all the way back to March.
To their credit, the Roos were playing some inspired footy before the break, losing narrowly to the Bombers before pushing the Giants and Bulldogs all the way.
Unfortunately, this does shape as another tough loss for the visitors – one that could get out of hand based on Adelaide’s numbers at home this year.
The Crows have been almost unbeatable on home turf, scoring 16 goals-per-game and limiting opponents to just 10.
Taylor Walker made the most of his matchup two weeks ago against West Coast, and he was again on-point in front of goal against the Pies – so much so that he now leads the Coleman Medal charge.
Nick Larkey has his own claims in the Coleman chase, but with the Crows really dialing their pressure up a notch through the midfield, it’s tough to back against them.
