The key to that for Adelaide is usually Laird, who was unlucky not to make the All-Australian side last year after averaging 33 disposals per game, the highest rate in the competition. Keeping him in check, with Harry Perryman the most likely option in that regard, is a priority for Kingsley. "Certainly. We have to be smart with him," he said. "He's won their last two best and fairests, which is a fair indicator that he's a damn good player. We'll certainly put some work into Rory. Whether that's a tag or accountability, we'll work that out. He's one player that we have to take care of, he can certainly win the game for the Crows."
Much more difficult to tag a player like Laird in terms of SC, given his ability to post high tackle counts and the players usually targeted with the tag are those of a more outside nature.

Locked in for me.
Points in the bank are the same in round one as24.
Was at the game and looked at sc scores at3/4 time. Told my son it looked like I wouldn't take it.
He told me to have faith in a big last 1/4 from crippa.
Shame he couldn't carry us home.
Still plenty more footy to come and we are undefeated.
