There were some late changes to SANFL availabilities on the weekend, but 16 Crows-listed players still appeared in the competition.
Brad Symes stood out to be the emergency for the Crows, Chris Knights could not play because of a sore quad and Sam Kerridge (Sturt) was sick. Richard Tambling also copped a knock early in Sturt’s game.
Cam Ellis-Yolmen, drafted by the Crows last November, made his league debut for the Eagles and collected 21 possessions.
Norwood had the bye.
