The crows are striking
An excellent pick-up from Rankine leads to an easy goal from Cook, the Crows extending their lead to 22 points. Make that 28, after Walker is involved in a play that leads to a blocked shot for Chayce Jones, who drills a bomb from 50m. The Crows have kicked up a gear. Danger signs for kangaroos.

Baby lift
It's been an impressive start to the second quarter by the Kangaroos. They avoided going three goals behind when Taylor Walker missed a long shot.
Larkey having the last laugh
Nick Larkey stands after contesting a mark, grabs a teammate's hand and then kicks the Kangaroos' third goal. That's the sign of a class forward, as is the 2023 All Australian. Luke Davies-Uniacke starts to get busy – the Kangaroos way by 14 points.
Substitute made
The Crows have been forced into an early move, as Luke Pedlar has injured his shoulder and will not play again this afternoon. Ned McHenry has been replaced.
Sheez, that's good
Star kangaroo Harry Sheezel has started well with a career-high 10 disposals, three marks and two tackles.
Quarter time statistics
Enter the jean
Taylor Walker had given the ball away selflessly a couple of times, but this time he converted a set for the first of the afternoon. The Ravens now have five.
just in time
This is what the Kangaroos needed… Zane Duursma intercepts a shot and scores a crucial goal. The Kangaroos' problems had been summed up as the Crows had dominated the inside 50 possessions 27-2 shortly before the impressive Duursma made his move.
