The prediction
North Melbourne (16th) produced a stunning performance to defeat Richmond by 48 points last week, a match highlighted by an extraordinary individual effort from one of their young stars.
The Adelaide Crows (1st) have established themselves as the team to beat, entering the final round on an eight-game winning streak after a resilient three-point win over Collingwood.
North Melbourne's young phenom, Harry Sheezel, was simply breathtaking against Richmond. He produced one of the great individual performances, equalling the all-time VFL/AFL record with a staggering 54 disposals to go with two goals.
Adelaide Crows captain, Jordan Dawson, continues to lead from the front and was instrumental in the win over Collingwood, finishing with 23 disposals and laying seven tackles in a tough, contested game.
Adelaide has controlled recent meetings between the two clubs, winning the last seven encounters comfortably. Their last meeting ended in a 114-78 victory for the Crows in Round 3 this season.
The Crows class and the powerful motivation of securing a minor premiership should see them record a comfortable victory in this one.
