Adelaide overcame the loss of two players in the first half to hang on for a gutsy seven-point win against the Brisbane Lions at the Gabba.

Brisbane had the momentum late but Adelaide held on courtesy of a Nathan van Berlo goal with a minute remaining.

Richard Douglas collected 31 disposals through the midfield to be Adelaide's best while and Kurt Tippett kicked five goals.

Have your say here on the win as we look ahead to Saturday night's big clash against Collingwood at the MCG.
