What a finish !!

Freo snatched it back to win 106-104.

Second consecutive game where a shot at goal missed in the dying moments.

Shame that the doggies got up last night though.

GWS are going to run away from Port at the end - Port fought to the front in the third quarter but GSW have 7 unanswered goals and are running on the top of the ground. Patton 6 goals. Greene 4.

There it is. Giants win 112 to 81. Port have lost two in a row, now.

Adelaide leads Essendon 56 to 20 - just quarter-time, now. Walker has 4 goals and has set up others.

Meanwhile, Tom Lynch (5.0) is playing Carlton on his own, so far - Gold Coast leads 6.0 to 4.4, halfway through the second.

Carlton lead Gold Coast 6.6 to 6.1 at halftime.

Essendon are coming back. They have the last three goals but still trail by 26.

Back to 32 - Crows 70, Essendon 38, halfway through the second.

Crows by 39. Walker has 5 (and 2 official goal assists), Betts has 4.

Crows by 52. Betts with 5 and Walker with yet another goal assist. 15.6 before halftime.

Crows lead 96 to 44 at halftime.

Carlton and GCS are 43 apiece early in the third.

A GWS versus Adelaide Grand Final would be a great spectacle - too early to be predicting, of course, but Adelaide have a brilliant forward-line.

Crows by 59, early in the third. At Etihad, the wheels have fallen off the Carlton wagon - they battled to a lead at 7.7 to 7.1, then GCS extracted the digit and kicked the next 6 in 15 minutes - in fact, 6.2, unanswered - and they lead 81 to 49.

Adelaide lead 109 to 62, with 5 minutes to go in the third. Carlton trail by 43 - 99 to 56, 10 minutes gone in the last.

So, Adelaide lead 109 to 69 at the last break.
