May 23rd 2010 06:48
ADELAIDE has registered its second win of the season, defeating Brisbane by 12 points at AAMI Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The Crows led by just one point at three-quarter time but kicked the first four goals of the final term to set up a 13.15 (93) to 11.15 (81) victory.
The Lions have now lost their past five matches.
Richard Douglas was instrumental in the win with 23 possessions and three goals while Nathan van Berlo (29 disposals) and Scott Thompson (27) were also damaging.
Patrick Dangerfield chipped in with three majors. Veteran Andrew McLeod booted two classy first-quarter goals while Taylor Walker kicked the first two majors of the final stanza, including a long range effort from inside the centre square.
Nathan Bock kept a clearly unfit Jonathan Brown goalless.
Ashley McGrath was Brisbane's best with 31 touches and two goals while Brendan Fevola booted five majors.
