AFL Rd 5 2023 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Adelaide in Adelaide

[Baggers]

I’m glad I’m not in a tipping competition; it’s too hard to read form and comparative strengths.

I know that we’ve never won at this ground, and Adelaide did a number on us last time we met, but we’re not defined by the past.  The Crows have a strong team but, if we’re on, we should win comfortably.

We have however won plenty of games in Adelaide in the past.

Yes, the Croweaters have a strong team, at home and everything to play for in terms of them launching the Adelaide round. Plenty of motivation.

Just the sought of challenge we need, knowing we are really up against it. We won't be going into this game like last year's game against the Croweaters... more likely how we went into last year's games against top sides. Our consistent best will win this game, an inconsistent effort and we're in trouble.
