ADELAIDE could be bolstered by the return of star defender Andrew McLeod for Sunday's crucial clash against Port Adelaide at AAMI Stadium.
The return of McLeod would be a major boost for the Crows who have lost their past four matches to slump to sixth place on the AFL ladder with an 8-7 win-loss record.
McLeod, who has missed the past two matches after having clean-out surgery on his right knee has returned to full training this week and can prove his fitness at Adelaide's main training sesssion on Thursday.
Adelaide coach Neil Craig said McLeod was a strong chance to play in the Showdown.
"I think he is (a chance to play), I spoke to Andrew this morning, he did a pretty solid session yesterday and pulled up well from it," Craig said.
"It looks like he'll attempt to train flat out for the full session tomorrow, so if he gets through that obviously he'll be a strong consideration."
