    Port Adelaide star Jason Horne-Francis chases Carlton captain Patrick Cripps in Round 12 last year. Photos: GETTY IMAGESPORT ADELAIDE v CARLTON (Adelaide Oval, Thursday 7pm)The interest in this game will mostly be from a macabre point of view. It will be a bit like a car crash.

The Brisbane Lions maintain their spot on top of the jumper ladder, while GWS remain last despite stunningly using their primary jumper twice in 2 weeks after only doing so 3 times in their first 11 games. Only 7 clubs have worn primary/heritage in at least two-thirds of games https://t.co/5RvLyEKzWR
