Adelaide Crows vs Melbourne Demons Preview
There were plenty of people doubting Melbourne after three losses in a row brought them right back to the pack.
But they answered with a resounding win over their closest rival in Brisbane, dominating in the middle of ground to win by over 10 goals.
You’ll do well not to forget those losses though when assessing them going forward.
The Crows have now won two of their last three albeit against West Coast and North Melbourne.
They were challenged by the Ross throughout the first half but ran away 57 point winners in Tasmania.
They rank third last in clearances for season 2022 and dead last for centre clearances which is a massive cause for concern against the Dees.
The Dees win but not without some resistant from the Crows on their home deck.
