Adelaide will be out to snap a two-game losing streak but the task at hand will be a tough one against GWS. 

The Crows went down to Geelong in Gather Round by 19 points, despite the best efforts of Darcy Fogarty (four goals) and Izak Rankine (25 disposals and two goals). 

On the same weekend, GWS accounted for St Kilda by 28. The Giants have conceeded the fewest amount of points per game this season and will look to restrict Adelaide, who have scored the most points of any side.

Adam Kingsley’s side tranistion the ball from their back half better than any side and will be dangerous when headinng forward with a couple of the competition’s best looming inside 50 in Jesse Hogan and Toby Greene. 

Unless the Crows can curtail this pair, they will suffer their third straight loss. Take the Giants to win with Tom Green and Toby Greene to provide plenty of influence for the visitors. 

  • GWS have won four of the past five matches between the two sides. 
  • Tom Green has averaged 33 disposals in his last three against Adelaide.
  • Toby Greene has kicked 14 goals in his last four matches against the Crows.
  • The Giants are conceding just 67 points per game.
