It’s the fans’ turn to head to match committee and select their best Crows 22 for the start of the premiership season.

We want you to make the tough calls and vote for the players you think should feature in Adelaide’s starting lineup against North Melbourne in Round One.

We’ll assume all players are fit and available for selection, which isn’t far from the truth according to GM of High Performance Brett Burton.

Defence wins premierships, so let’s kick things off by building the backline.

Keep clicking back to afc.com.au in the buildup to Round One to also choose the midfielders and forwards who you believe will be in Adelaide’s starting 22.

Adelaide’s final team, as judged by the fans, will then be revealed ahead of the first selection night on Thursday, March 24.

Which new Crow deserves a go?

Full list of defenders
Jake Lever
Nathan van Berlo
Paul Seedsman (also selectable as a midfielder)
Daniel Talia
Kyle Hartigan
Luke Brown
Curtly Hampton
Andy Otten
Kyle Cheney
Rory Laird
Brodie Smith
Sam Shaw
Tom Doedee
Alex Keath
Ricky Henderson
Jake Kelly

While it would be nice to have three Daniel Talia’s propping up our defence, match committee rules state you should avoid choosing the same player over multiple slides!
