Adelaide Crows

Breakout game gives hint of youngster's potential
It was the last game of the season against the worst team in the competition, but Jordan Gallucci's career-best performance showed what the 20-year-old midfielder-forward is capable of. Gallucci booted four goals to go with 17 disposals and seven inside 50s in the Crows' 104-point thumping of Carlton in Round 23. Gallucci's numbers – 11.6 disposals, 2.6 marks, 0.9 goals and 3.0 inside 50s per game – are almost identical to 235-game veteran Richard Douglas, who turns 32 in February, after their first 17 games. A first-round draft pick in 2016, Gallucci will continue to play mostly as a forward next year, but will likely be eased into the midfield in the next couple of seasons as his endurance develops.
