Adelaide’s 104-point victory over Carlton on Saturday night was the side’s largest margin since defeating Essendon by 112 points in Round 20, 2015 and the highest score by any team in the 2018 season.
Both victories took place at Etihad Stadium, where Adelaide has scored 100+ in six of its last eight visits.
The Crows’ final score of 26.9 (165) was also the Club’s highest total since kicking 27.15 (177) against Brisbane in Round 20, 2016.
Adelaide’s efficiency in attack was matched by its efficiency in defence.
Thirty-five scoring shots were recorded from 54 inside 50s while Carlton had a round-high 61 inside 50s but could only manage 21 scoring shots.
Five Crows ran at 90 per cent efficiency or more with Andy Otten at 95.2, Richard Douglas at 94.1, Riley Knight at 92.3, Eddie Betts at 91.7 and Rory Laird at 91.2.
