Adelaide fight hard in Melbourne to down the Dogs.
Adelaide Crows have evened their season at 3-3 with a nine-point victory over the Western Bulldogs at Docklands on Sunday afternoon.
The Crows started poorly but fought back to take control in the second half and held on for a 13.14 (92) to 12.11 (83) win.
The Bulldogs kicked the first three goals of the game, and led by 16 points at quarter-time. They then pushed out to a 28-point lead early in the second term before the Crows started to fight back.
Four straight goals to the visitors reduced the margin to just four points at the half.
The Crows then kicked the only three goals of the third quarter to hit the front and lead by 16 points at the final change, as the Bulldogs lost their attacking impetus.
The lead switched several times in a frenetic final quarter, but a Bulldogs turnover late in time on led to the sealer from Eddie Betts.
The Bulldogs slip to 2-4 with the loss.
The Bulldogs’ Daniel Giansiracusa may have to face the judiciary after he hit Patrick Dangerfield with a bump after the three quarter-time siren.
