The Adelaide Crows will look to bounce back when they take on the high-flying Sydney Swans at Adelaide Oval on Saturday night AFL clash.
The Crows have blown their chances of finishing in the top eight this season, losing back-to-back games against Hawthorn and, most recently, Richmond by eight points as they joined Sydney as the only teams to lose to the Tigers this season. It was a devastatingly poor result that sees them sit 15th, 10 points away from the top eight.
On the flip side, the Swans remain the team to beat and have had their best start to a season in the 21st century. A victory on Saturday will see them open up a 12-point gap over the second-placed Carlton Blues.
