Experienced trio Rory Sloane, Eddie Betts and Richard Douglas are set to have their first competitive hit-outs of 2018 in an intraclub match at Football Park on Saturday morning.

The majority of the Crows playing list will lace up the boots, including new senior leader Matt Crouch and recruit Bryce Gibbs, with the game also providing an opportunity for a number of players to strengthen their case for Round One selection.

Coach Don Pyke confirmed the fixture following his side’s 10-point win over Fremantle in the first JLT Community Series game, with the Crows mentor keen to give his players another solid run ahead of the Club’s final pre-season game against Port Adelaide on Saturday March 10. 

The intraclub match will be open to the public, with gates at Football Park opening from 9am. The match is expected to finish at approximately 11.30am.

Entry is on the western side at Gate 8, near Checkside Tavern.

For fans wanting the latest Crows merchandise, CROWmania will be open from 9am1pm.
