Hostplus League Qualifying Final Snapshot - SANFL (SANFL)

Adelaide produced an impressive display of skill and flair en route to a barnstorming 55-point win against Norwood in the Qualifying Final at Adelaide Oval.

The Crows mid-season recruit amassed 26 disposals, eight clearances and four inside-50s in the win. It was a sign of the avalanche to come as the Crows piled on 7.2 to Norwood’s 1.2 in the third quarter to ensure they would win their first game against the Legs in their last five outings and first since winning the 2019 First-Semi Final by 62 points.
