The winless Kangaroos look on track for a fifth-straight season trapped in the bottom-two on the ladder after being smashed by Hawthorn last week. The match shaped as extremely winnable for North, but the match was over by halftime. Alastair Clarkson’s team is devoid of key options down back and are getting scored against at ease. North’s record in Hobart is reasonable and this could be a game they pinch back to quieten the discontent brewing amongst supporters. Adelaide will head to the Tasmanian capital with their season on the line. The Crows fell to 1-5, and 0-3 at home, after their controversial defeat to Essendon when Bombers ruckman Sam Draper was incorrectly not penalised for holding the ball in the dying seconds. Adelaide star Taylor Walker would have had a shot a goal to win the game if the umpire didn’t make a mistake.
TIP: Adelaide by 23 points, Ben Keays to kick two or more goals
