SUMMARY
Geelong, bound for a top-two finish, is understandably the red-hot favourite against the out-of-contention Crows, but both teams carry winning form into this game.

Adelaide made it two wins in a row under caretaker coach Mark Bickley when it defeated the Brisbane Lions by five points at the Gabba on Sunday. The Cats recorded their second triple-digit massacre in succession when they thumped Gold Coast by 150 points at Skilled Stadium.

The Crows will be sweating on the fitness of Chris Knights, who was subbed out of the Lions' match with a hip injury, but they may regain important forward Kurt Tippett from a hamstring strain. The Cats ruled out Matthew Scarlett on the Tuesday before the game, but look set to regain Corey Enright and Brad Ottens.
 
QUESTION MARKS
Is Mark Bickley Adelaide's next full-time senior coach? If he can engineer anything less than a five-goal loss (or even a win) then it will be a major feather in the cap of the interim coach who has impressed in his first two games in charge.
 
Can the Cats maintain the rage? They've been downright mean in throttling the life out of Melbourne and Gold Coast in the past fortnight. Chris Scott makes no apologies for the take-no-prisoners approach (neither should he) and the coach will demand another clinical performance this week.
 
PREDICTION
Geelong by 45 points
 
TOYOTA AFL DREAM TEAM WATCH
Nathan van Berlo ($322,200) has excelled under Bickley with scores of 120 and 137 in the past fortnight. The Crows' skipper could be a handy pick-up for the Dream Team finals series.

Geelong's Steve Johnson ($409,600) has a proven track record of beating up on lesser opponents as evidenced by his scores of 171 and 146 in the Cats' two huge wins. The Crows could well fall into this category.
