Crows 'Quietly Confident' On Goodwin

The Adelaide Advertiser has today claimed the Crows are 'quietly confident' $336k mid/forward Simon Goodwin will be fit to play next round against Sydney.

Goodwin, who is owned by over 20,000 DT coaches, missed Adelaide's last match with a slight medial ligament strain in his knee and was expected to face a race against time to be fit for next round.

But Adelaide footy operations manager John Reid said, "He didn't train yesterday, but we're expecting him to train Tuesday.

"We won't really know until he has a hit out, but we're expecting him to be better than a fair chance of playing."

Adelaide play Sydney on Saturday afternoon at AAMI Stadium.
