Essendon and Adelaide clash in what is a vital round six clash for both sides to stay in touch with the top eight.
House of horrors: Essendon’s midfield could not have looked more insipid than their last visit to Adelaide Oval when they were torn apart by Connor Rozee and Jason Horne-Francis. Brad Scott will be looking for a more consistent effort from skipper Zach Merrett and accumulator Darcy Parish. Adelaide are yet to win at home this year, losing to Geelong and Melbourne.What’s at stake: The Bombers can slip momentarily into the top eight if they beat the Crows and go 4-2 for the season.
The two teams played at the same venue in round 18 in 2019, and again the Bombers won, that time by 21 points. Essendon dominates their head-to-head clashes across the past five years, holding a 5-0 advantage.
