Adelaide wingman Brodie Smith will be sidelined for eight weeks after breaking his collarbone.The 21-year-old was injured in the Crows' 16-point victory over hometown rivals Port Adelaide in the NAB Cup.
Smith had been one of the Crows' best players in the 26-point loss to St Kilda earlier in the day.
But his luck ran out when he landed heavily after attempting a tackle early in the first half of the Power clash.
Coach Brenton Sanderson admitted Smith would be tough to replace.
"It's disappointing, Brodie is such an important player for us and had a fantastic year in 2012," said Sanderson.
