R19 Preview: Adelaide vs Richmond
August 8th 2008 04:04
Which milestone is more important: Andrew McLeod's 300th or Joel Bowdon's 250th?
This will be what drives both teams on Sunday, as they meet for the second time this season.
Throw in the aspect of possibly playing finals footy in four weeks time, and you have a ripper-game on your hands.
Adelaide have managed to overcome both Sydney and Carlton in the last fortnight; after not looking too impressive in both fixtures.
Despite losing Jason Porplyzia and Chris Knights before half-time last week, the Crows hung on to defeat a fast-finishing Carlton side. Scott Thompson destroyed the Tigers in Round 11 with a career-high six goals, will he do it again to Terry Wallace's side?
Nathan Brown returns for the Tigers this after missing the game against Geelong with a virus. He will be another focal point in the forward line. Mitch Morton has been rather quiet these last few weeks, so expect him to possibly put on a show if the Adelaide defense lets him run loose.
A loss here could see their Finals' aspirations almost disappear.
