    BARRETT: Why football matters so much, and so little, to Jordan Dawson

    As the Crows skipper superbly leads Adelaide amid a torrent of grief, his teammates have vowed to support their skipper anytime and anywhere, writes Damian Barrett

    THERE is nowhere to hide in an AFL match, where between first and last sirens all combatants are exposed to an unforgiving, brutal workplace.

    Adelaide captain Jordan Dawson loves this part of the football ritual. He thrives in competing against the best and is always plotting ways to break opponents, and last Thursday night, for the 165th time in a 10-year career with two clubs, he diligently went to work in a match at Adelaide Oval.

    Coaches’ votes Round 13: Dawson’s big-game impact recognised after Cats thriller

    Crows Captain Jordan Dawson’s inspirational performance in Adelaide’s one-point win against Geelong on Thursday night has earned him a perfect 10 in the AFLCA Coaches’ votes.

    The 29-year-old was brilliant in the middle, and damaging in attack, finishing the match with 22 disposals, nine tackles, seven clearances, seven marks, three goals and 486 metres gained.

    Young gun Dan Curtin was also prolific, and received eight votes following his team-high 26 disposals, five clearances, five marks, one goal and 527 metres gained.

    Forward and Vice Captain Alex Neal-Bullen rounded out the vote-getters for Adelaide with one, after amassing 15 disposals, five tackles, three clearances and kicking a goal.

    Matters of State: Blues and Maroons spine contenders

    For the first time in a decade, a Queensland State of Origin team will be named for the April 30 series opener in Newcastle without Ali Brigginshaw.

    With a new coach, new captain and new halves pairing, the Maroons are set to begin a new Origin era. 

    Highly regarded Dragons coach Nathan Cross has taken charge and he will be aiming to reverse last year's series loss with a new playmaking combination following Brigginshaw's Origin retirement and the loss of Tarryn Aiken through injury. 

    Brigginshaw has been a feature of every Maroons team since 2016, when the fixture was still known as the Interstate Challenge before becoming State of Origin in 2018, and has been captain since 2019.

    They may be defending champions, but Billy Slater’s Queensland team for Origin I is set to look very different than the side that clinched the shield last season.

    Injuries to Reece Walsh and Ben Hunt have thrown the spine selections into chaos, while the returns of David Fifita and Kalyn Ponga are set to effect some incumbent stars.

    Only one thing matters in centurion Root's pursuit

    He may have scored his first century on Australian shores, but there are bigger fish to fry for England's champion

    Selfless Joe Root is so hell-bent on winning the Ashes that he was quick to put his first Test century in Australia back in its box when asked for his reflections.

    This tour could well be the final time the 34-year-old gets the chance to win the Ashes for the first time in his career Down Under. His breakthrough unbeaten 138 at the Gabba was a means to an end and not an end in itself.

    Root's deepest views on that magnificent knock will have to wait. All the well wishes from his many supporters, though much appreciated by England's No.4, must also be put in perspective.

    Read the full recap of day two of the second Ashes Test here.

    Australia have scrapped their way to a first innings lead in the second Ashes Test, capitalising on England’s sloppiest day of the series after five dropped catches, muddled tactics and wayward bowling soured their bright start at the Gabba.

    At the close of an enthralling day’s play in the pink-ball clash – which is proving far closer to a traditional Test match than the two-day mayhem in Perth – Australia reached 6-378, boasting a lead of 44 runs, to tighten their grip on a series that looks to be steadily drifting their way.
