The GWS Giants and the Adelaide Crows will continue their pre-season preparations with a JLT Series clash at UNSW Canberra Oval come Friday night. Join The Roar for live scores and a blog of the match, starting from 7:10pm (AEDT).
It may only be a pre-season competition, but the JLT Series has been a success so far in terms of giving the fans competitive fixtures.
The Giants are coming off a really good 22-point win against their neighbour in the Sydney Swans. Those type of wins can give the group the belief and desire they need going into the home-and-away season.
In terms of the individuals who performed well for GWS, Stephen Coniglio had a superb game reeling in 35 disposals.
I know they are completely different formats of the game, but Coniglio also looked sharp in the AFLX, so he potentially could be in for a massive season.
Tim Taranto was the only other Giant to surpass the 30-disposal mark. Daniel Lloyd was sharp in front of goal, finishing the game with three majors.
As for the Crows, they are coming off a 17-point victory over their arch-rival, the Port Adelaide Power.
The Crows no doubt will be looking to have a huge season after such a disappointing campaign in 2018, so this was not a bad way to start.
Matt Crouch was the only Crow to surpass 30 disposals, with Brad Crouch the next best with 29 disposals.
Eddie Betts was clinical in front of goal, finishing the game with four majors. The Crows will need Betts at his absolute best this season, and if pre-season is anything to go by, they may get their wish.
Those who starred for the Giants and Crows last week will be looking to do it all again on Friday night.
Prediction
As many like to state, it is only a pre-season clash, which means the result does not matter. That is true, but I think we will see a really competitive game between these two sides nonetheless.
The Crows to prevail by 10 points.

I have to say i didn't watch the game, but is this a case of perhaps the Giants not being as primed as early as previous years, a bit slower out of the blocks is perhaps a good thing, albeit different to Adelaide who have a lot to prove.
