The Showdown in Adelaide was a see-saw affair. Brook Kilpatrick covered the match for AFANA:

Crows Down Power in Epic Showdown | AFANA

Adelaide claimed bragging rights in Showdown 57 with a gritty five point win over Port Adelaide in front of a sold-out Adelaide Oval on Saturday night, thanks in large part to a stunning burst of brilliance from Izak Rankine in the final term. Rankine’s pair of quick goals midway through the fourth quarter gave the Crows just enough breathing room to edge out the Power 13.11 (89) to 12.12 (84), in a clash that saw momentum swing wildly all night and in the most competitive round of AFL or VFL footy since at least 1970.

@AFL @[email protected] At least on the surface, this is a good suggestion. It would certainly make for a more active trade period.

@AFL @[email protected] A good list of suggestions for Gather Round next year.

I especially like the idea of a game in the Barossa Valley, or more SANFL grounds being used.

Perhaps a match in Glenelg? Or Unley? Or even Port playing an in-season AFL match at Alberton Oval?
