jack viney sits at the centre of the latest round 13 teams update, with Adelaide and Geelong both named for Thursday night at Adelaide Oval. The selection picture is now set for a clash that arrives with one side still shaping its plan around Geelong defender Tom Stewart.
Adelaide Oval selection watch
The key development for fans is simple: the teams are in for Thursday night’s Adelaide-Geelong meeting at Adelaide Oval. Round 13 is the focus of the latest teams news update, and that gives both clubs a clear line on who is available for one of the week’s most watched matchups.
Richmond and Greater Western Sydney have the bye in round 13, so Adelaide and Geelong move into the spotlight instead. For supporters tracking the selection sheet, the immediate question now shifts from who might play to how each club uses the players it has named.
Tom Stewart’s Adelaide impact
Geelong’s Tom Stewart remains part of the discussion because of what he did in Adelaide’s last meeting with the Cats. Stewart cut up Adelaide when the teams last played, and that previous damage has already shaped the way the Crows have spoken about the contest.
Darcy Fogarty has said Stewart has been a focus of Adelaide’s planning. That puts the defender’s role back under a bright light before the teams run out on Thursday night, with Adelaide clearly trying to build its match-up work around one player who has already hurt them once.
Fogarty and the rematch
Fogarty’s comment is the sharpest sign of how Adelaide is approaching the game. Stewart is not just another Geelong name on the sheet; he is the player the Crows have singled out while preparing for round 13.
For readers following the teams news update, the immediate takeaway is that Thursday night at Adelaide Oval now has a defined frame: Adelaide versus Geelong, round 13, with Stewart’s influence and Adelaide’s response sitting at the heart of the matchup. That is the selection lens to watch before the first bounce.
