Adelaide's captain Jordan Dawson gets in on the act by kicking his team's ninth goal of the night!

Dawson's now up to 10 touches and has three clearances to go along with that goal.

Adelaide doing incredible damage out of the middle of the ground right now. The centre clearance count currently reads 11-1!

I cannot recall seeing a disparity like that.

Jake Waterman has had his troubles in front of goal this year, but makes no mistake on this set shot!

West Coast badly needed that goal and that'll do the world of good for Waterman's confidence as well.

He's now kicked 32.40 for the season. Could've been well in the running for the Coleman, had he kicked a little more accurately.

The Dogs head to the sheds after a much-improved second quarter.

However, that shocking first term means they are still 27 points off the Swans, who look to be in cruise control at the SCG.

Charlie Curnow (four goals) has been a constant threat while on the oval, but spent a large chunk of that quarter looking rather relaxed on the Sydney bench.

Hayden McLean (two goals) has been hungry on his return to the team, while Chad Warner (one goal, 12 disposals) has been a handful in midfield.

The Dogs, despite that second-quarter improvement, have been really wasteful in front of goal, with Aaron Naughton guilty of two bad misses.

A little more accuracy needed after the break.

Adelaide now out to a 41-point lead early on in the second quarter after the first few goals out of the break.

Alex Neal-Bullen kicked the first, before Darcy Fogarty added his fourth from inside the square.

The Crows have 129 disposals to the Eagles' 86.

I'm sorry to say if you're an Eagles fan, but this has a 100-point drubbing written all over it.

It's a long, hopeful kick into the arc but it falls the Bulldogs' way, with Ryley Sanders receiving a handball and snapping from in front.

And the Dogs have a chance for another goal in the shadows of the main break, but Aaron Naughton misses another seemingly straightforward set shot.

It's a 26-point game at the SCG.

A late goal from Dan Curtin gives Adelaide what is virtually a five-goal lead at quarter time, and they're fully deserving of it.

It's been an utterly dominant quarter from one of the league's best sides against one of the league's worst.

The Crows lead the inside 50 count 21- 6 and the clearance count 16-8, including an 8-1 smashing out of centre bounces.

Adelaide has already generated a number of goals out of the centre bounce in the opening quarter.

Izak Rankine (10 disposals and four clearances) and Jordan Dawson (nine disposals and three clearances) are running riot out of the middle, while Darcy Fogarty has four goals.

Work to do for West Coast, and then some.

Hayden McLean is a man possessed out there at the moment.

This is a very impressive return to the team for the forward in for the injured Joel Amartey.

He performs a massive, lunging tackle to win a freekick on the edge of the arc.

But he's unable to kick his third major of the day - his set shot is well directed, but not long enough.

Swans by 32.

Hayden McLean is lurking at the back of the contest and is on hand to pick up a loose ball and roll his kick between the big sticks.

McLean has two on his return to the team and the Swans' lead is back out to 32 points.

The Bulldogs have been slightly improved in the last few minutes, and now have a second goal.

Arty Jones takes a chest mark from a cute little chip, and he nails his set shot.

He celebrates to and in front of the Sydney crowd.

Interesting move with your team 27 points down.

Caiden Cleary isn't a man always known for his accuracy in front of goal, and that might've been playing on his mind during the Swans' latest foray forward.

He has plenty of room and a clear path to goal in the 50, but instead of taking the set shot, lays off a handball to a teammate in a worse position.

The ball is immediately played back to him, and Cleary, now on the edge of the goal square, has no choice but to kick himself.

It's a goal and the Swans now lead by 34.

The Eagles appear to have settled somewhat after the Crows made that rapid start.

The inside 50 count still reads 11-7 Adelaide's way, but it's certainly evened up in the last five minutes.

Liam Baker leads all players with six disposals so far with five minutes left in the first term.

West Coast should really have another goal, but Bo Allan missed a very gettable set shot a few minutes earlier.

It's an absolute bomb from Bailey Dale,

The Dogs, finally, have their first goal of the night.

Dale thumps his kick from inside the centre square and the ball stays just high enough to evade a Sydney hand on the line.

Much more of that needed for Luke Beveridge's side.

Swans by 29.

Darcy Fogarty is eyeing a HUGE evening out here so far!

The Crows break forward after the Williams goal and Fogarty simply monsters his man in the marking contest.

Eagles coach Andrew McQualter has his arms outstretched wanting a free kick there, but Fogarty simply put his man in the weight room.

The Crows spearhead drills the easy set shot to make it three goals for the quarter.

Adelaide has also kicked 3.0 out of centre bounces so far.

An old-fashioned ruck free kick nets West Coast its first goal of the night!

Toby Murray inexplicably wraps his arm around the neck of Jack Williams, and Williams wins the free kick and then converts the easy set shot from directly in front.

It's an understatement to say the Eagles needed that one!

Charlie Curnow absolutely wallops his set shot from the edge of the arc on the far right.

It is a sensational kick, but Curnow is forced to delay his celebrations, with two Bulldogs hands getting close to touching the ball.

The video review shows that the ball had just crossed the line before Buku Khamis got his hand to it.

Swans by 35.

Thankfully for Swans fans, Isaac Heeney is out there and looking fine after looking to have picked up a slight knock late in the first quarter.

He, and the rest of the Swans, will be looking for more of the same as the second-quarter gets underway.

West Coast in big, big, big trouble here at Perth Stadium.

Darcy Fogarty wins a free kick for high contact and drills the set shot from directly in front of goal around 40m out.

Jordan Dawson hitting Harley Reid with a don't argue in the lead-up to that one. Wonder how Harley feels about having to take some of his own medicine!

Adelaide leads the inside 50 count 7-1, and they've now converted four of those seven into goals.

Watching Darcy Fogarty kick a set shot is akin to a spiritual experience sometimes.

Here he absolutely flushes another one from right on the 50m arc after a lovely short hit-up kick from Josh Rachele.

The alarm bells have to be going off in West Coast's coaches box right now.

The Bulldogs finish a wasteful, goalless quarter with a behind on the siren.

Not much to like about that term for Dogs fans, with Aaron Naughton and Marcus Bontempelli amongst those to miss kicks you'd expect them to make.

For the Swans, it's a great response from last week's loss to Brisbane.

Charlie Curnow (three goals) has been a bully in the arc, while Hayden McLean (one goal) has made a promising return to the side.

But, in worrying signs for the Swans, Isaac Heeney did appear to be limping a touch for the final few minutes of that term.

We'll keep you updated on that one.
