What AFL Media learned from Adelaide's 55-point win over Carlton on Saturday night.

Underrated Crows veteran proving his worth
Any discussion of the Adelaide midfield centres on Rory Sloane, Matt Crouch and Bryce Gibbs, but Richard Douglas needs to be in that conversation. The 31-year-old continues to get the job done week after week, turning in another strong performance in his side's 55-point thumping of Carlton at Adelaide Oval on Saturday night. Douglas had 28 disposals at 85 per cent efficiency, 13 contested possessions, eight clearances, five inside 50s and booted two goals. He won the Crows' best and fairest in 2011, but doesn't grab the headlines of his more recognised teammates. He definitely warrants more recognition as the third-placed Crows (5-2) prepare to face Port Adelaide on Saturday.
