"SHOWDOWN 53 will go down in the history books as one to remember, with the Adelaide Crows sparking life into its season to overrun crosstown rival Port Adelaide Power at Adelaide Oval on Saturday night.
"The Power led 84-80 at the 11-minute mark of the last quarter before the Crows booted the last six goals to run away 31-point winners – 117 to 86 – in front of a 48,962-strong crowd.
"Young guns Riley Thilthorpe (five goals), Izak Rankine (four) and Luke Pedlar (three) kicked 12 of the Crows' 18 goals, while Charlie Dixon was the Power's leading goalkicker with three."
