GWS are still looking for their first win of the season but judging by their efforts thus far this season, which have seen them concede an average of 132 points per game, that elusive victory will not be coming this weekend as they shape up against Adelaide.

Actually, with the rounds ahead including Hawthorn, Carlton and Geelong, that 2013 victory might not come at all.

Adelaide hasn’t been travelling all that well, or as well as most would have anticipated this season either.

Their two wins this year coming over teams placed lower than on the ladder in Brisbane and Western Bulldogs but they did show good commitment last week against the Hawks.

Several times during the match, it appeared that Hawthorn were going to go right away with it as they established leads of up to 24 points but the Crows showed good character and ran their opponents’ margin down to eleven points in the end.

GWS have lost their last three games by 41, 44 and 39 (Essendon) and have been given 48.5 start here. At Skoda Stadium for the first time this year, that just might be enough.

TIP:  GWS +48.5 @ $1.92
