Crows run away from winless Roos

)Adelaide has broken North Melbourne hearts by powering away for a 41-point victory at Docklands to extend the Kangaroos’ AFL losing streak to 12 matches.
After being embarrassed by 128 points in their marquee Good Friday match last week, the Kangaroos responded in fierce fashion to give the Crows some nervous moments this afternoon.
But Adelaide weathered the Kangaroos’ gallant charge to slam through eight final-quarter goals to one and win 16.13 (109) to 10.8 (68).
After winning just three matches last year to collect the club’s first wooden spoon, the Crows find themselves inside the top-eight with a 3-1 record.
The Kangaroos took a four-point lead into the last term after dominating the second and third quarters, but the Crows ran out the match far stronger as their opponents faded badly.
The home side was left reeling when Cam Zurhaar (concussion) and Luke McDonald (pectoral muscle) were ruled out of the match after hurting themselves within seconds of each other.
The pair went straight to the bench, with medical sub Lachie Young activated into the match in the first term.
Winless through four matches this season, the Kangaroos’ last win was back in round nine of the 2020 season when they smashed Adelaide by 69 points.
Rejuvenated Adelaide veteran Taylor Walker extended his lead in the Coleman Medal race with three goals, including the opening two of the match in what seemed to be an ominous sign for the Kangaroos.
Walker enjoyed terrific support up forward and Darcy Fogarty made the most of his opportunities with three goals from just five kicks.
Crows young gun Lachlan Sholl had a career-best game with 31disposals, while Rory Laird and Ben Keays were influential.
