West Coast Eagles vs Adelaide Crows Preview

Adelaide heads west on Friday night desperate to respond after a disappointing Showdown defeat dented its top-four hopes. The Crows squandered a golden opportunity against Port Adelaide despite Darcy Fogarty’s five-goal haul, and will expect a sharper performance against a struggling West Coast outfit. The Eagles have lost 10 of their past 12 matches following another heavy defeat to Carlton and are searching for their first win over Adelaide since 2022. Josh Rachele and Izak Rankine will be aiming to provide greater support for Fogarty after quiet outings last week, while West Coast must rediscover its competitiveness if it is to challenge a side still firmly in the premiership conversation.
