Show Preview
The North Melbourne Kangaroos host the Adelaide Crows in a Saturday night showdown for Round 4 of the AFL season. Join us for live scores and a blog here at The Roar from 7:25pm (AEST).
Both teams have started the 2019 season in less than spectacular fashion with North Melbourne winless after the first three rounds and Adelaide with just one win from their three games.
North Melbourne started off last week against Hawthorn strongly and took a nine-point lead going into the second half, but Hawthorn though found their groove in the tightly contested match running away with a 16-point win.
Adelaide couldn’t find their footing from the first bounce, they did manage to tighten the game up to get to three points behind midway through the fourth before Geelong with the help of Gary Ablett pulled away for a 22-point win.
Ben Brown has been in the firing line from former North great Wayne Carey for his lack of ground work ability, can that strike a fire in him and see him get back to his dominant best, or will Daniel Talia look to exploit any weakness in Brown’s game?
Rory Laird has a good track record against North Melbourne in past outings and will look to continue that form to help his side get over the current slump they are in.
Eddie Betts similarly to Ben Brown has also been underperforming this season and will want a bounce-back game especially with North missing Marley Williams this week.
With both sides wanting to breathe life back into their seasons this game looks set to be a hotly contested affair.
Can North get on the winner’s list for the first time this season or will they still be anchored to the bottom of the ladder?
Will Adelaide again falter for the third time this season and slide further down the ladder or can they resurrect what should be a bounce-back season?
If Adelaide can get their forward line firing then it could be a long night for the Kangaroos, North has looked good in the previous two games but will need to stay competitive from start to finish if they are to win.
The winner will be decided by which Forward line can get back to their best, will Tex Walker rebound after kicking just one goal from the Crows two losses or will Ben Brown quiet his critics for the time being?
