Adelaide star Josh Rachele has admitted his team will face a significant challenge taking on Harley Reid when they play the West Coast Eagles on Sunday.
Rachele is determined to make amends for the Crows' loss to Collingwood last weekend, where he missed a crucial goal that could have won the match.
"I had the chance to seal the game, but unfortunately, there weren't many options available," he said today.

"Looking back, we should've held onto the ball instead of playing on."
Rachele is now focused on redemption when the Eagles visit Adelaide, fresh from their upset win over Melbourne.
"They're playing an exciting brand of footy, especially over there in Perth. We're probably a bit lucky we're not playing them down there this week," Rachele said.
Rising star Reid will be of particular concern to the Crows.
"He's a great character, well-liked person, and to watch his journey so far - it's been amazing," Rachele said. "But hopefully, he doesn't have too many highlights this weekend.
"It'd be awesome to line up against him at centre bounces. But my main thing would be not to press him if he's sticking out that stiff arm, you don't want to be on another highlight reel like a few of the boys in the past."
