Adelaide takes centre stage, in one of its primetime fixture rewards for last year’s goal review blunder which cost them a finals spot, against Geelong tonight.
The Crows (0-1, 90%) were disappointing before charging late to fall just short against Gold Coast in Round 1, but now return home where they were a much stronger side in 2023.
The Cats (1-0, 111.8%) escaped an upset bid by the Saints last week to ensure they wouldn’t repeat their horror 0-3 start to 2023. They’ve had quite a bit of success at Adelaide Oval, going 9-6 there in home and away matches since 2014.
