Adelaide will come to aid of star midfielder Rory Sloane if he gets tagged in Saturday night's game with Melbourne at Adelaide Oval.
Sloane rocketed into favourtism for the Brownlow Medal on the back of outstanding form through the first six rounds of the season.
But he was kept to just 18 possessions by North Melbourne in last weekend's shock 59-point loss in Hobart.
Kangaroos midfielder Sam Gibson nullified Sloane's impact and delivered a blueprint to the rest of the competition.
"We've probably got to help Sloaney a bit more, find ways to get him loose and get him the ball," Crows defender Daniel Talia told reporters on Tuesday.
"If sides want to tag a player, you can manipulate it in ways.
"We've been able to do it in the past where they go to our player and we're able to free other guys up.
"If they want to go that way, then so be it, we'll have a plan ready to go.
"We expect if a guy is getting hot then an opposition club will put players on him."
The ladder-leading Crows are staying positive after an incredible first quarter against the Kangaroos in which they conceded 10.4 (64) without troubling the scoreboard themselves.
"It's been a really good vibe," Talia said.
"The feeling around the Club hasn't changed this week.
"We acknowledge that first quarter was nowhere near our standard.
"We've got to accept that and put our hands up and redeem ourselves this week and can't wait to do that on Saturday."
Talia was confident forward Tom Lynch would be available to play after he left the ground in the second quarter with concussion.
Lynch will do non-contact training on Wednesday but has to pass a final concussion test on Friday.
