SANFL: Finals push
Several Crows-listed players in the local league continue to push for an AFL recall
Jarryd Lyons and Luke Brown starred on opposing teams on Friday night, with Lyons dominating the midfield for Glenelg with 26 possessions and Brown (22 possessions) rated Norwood’s best.
Andy Otten, who has been sidelined since hurting a knee with the Crows against West Coast in round 17, returned with South Adelaide and Ricky Henderson also was back in action, although he had to play as a guest with South’s reserves because Central District had the bye.
The SANFL competition has one more minor round to play before its final series.
