ADELAIDE's cost from the opening bout of its NAB Cup defence is the loss of midfielder-defender Brodie Smith from possibly the first full month of the AFL premiership season.
Smith had his left collarbone smashed in a contest in the fourth minute of the "Summer Showdown" against Port Adelaide at AAMI Stadium today.
Crows coach Brenton Sanderson said Smith will have an X-ray tomorrow. If the break is confirmed Smith will be sidelined for eight weeks.
"That will test our depth," said Sanderson.
While Angus Monfries' Port Adelaide debut was soured by a hamstring injury.
Power coach Ken Hinkley said Monfries had suffered a grade one hamstring strain which would sideline him from Port Adelaide's round two NAB Cup clash against Melbourne in Renmark on Sunday, March 3.
But Hinkley said Monfries was to be rested from the clash anyway.
"It's of no major concern for Gus or us," Hinkley said.
Monfries hurt his hamstring late in the loss to Adelaide in which he impressed with 11 disposals and one goal.
In the earlier win over St Kilda, the former Essendon forward had four touches.
