News bites
Giants un-Shaw on Heath
GWS is yet to make a decision on Heath Shaw’s availability for this week’s fixture against the Crows after the defender was heavily concussed in the Giants’ Round 15 clash with the Swans.
AFL Media Match Preview
Adelaide will be eager to continue its recent dominance over the Giants as the Crows aim to win consecutive matches for the first time since April.
