ADELAIDE is confident "bruised and battered" midfield star Patrick Dangerfield will play in Sunday's crunch clash against St Kilda at Etihad Stadium.
Dangerfield is nursing a sprained left ankle and a sore body which saw him train just lightly today.
After the session he was limping slightly on the heavily bandaged ankle he twisted in last Saturday's 63-point loss to Sydney at Adelaide Oval.
Will Port Adelaide have more members than the Crows by the end of the season?
But teammate Daniel Talia tipped Dangerfield to play against the Saints while stressing the Crows players had to do a better job of looking after him during matches.
"He'll be fine," Talia said, stressing how badly 0-3 Adelaide needs a win.
"I'm not sure what's even wrong with him, Patty, he's always sore.

"He's been getting a bit bruised and battered lately and I think he's been a bit sore from that.
"So as a team we need to do a bit more to help him out."
Adelaide expects its other trio of sore players — Scott Thompson (corked thigh), Sam Kerridge (poke in eye) and Mitch Grigg (adductor) — to also prove their fitness.
Kerridge is the one in most doubt.
Agile forward Tom Lynch is considered an outside chance to resume in the SANFL from a dislocated shoulder.
