Clashes between the Crows and Power are rarely cordial on the footy field but this time they'll be meeting for a good cause.
As the nation rallies around those affected by the bushfires across the country, the South Australian AFL clubs have organised a cricket match to raise funds.
The Bushfire T20 Showdown will take place at Adelaide Oval on Sunday, February 2.
Several cricket stars will also take part in the charity match which will get underway from 2.30pm (ACDT, 3pm AEDT).
Tickets will be an affordable $20 for adults, $5 for kids and $40 for families.

Crows CEO Andrew Fagan spoke about the importance of the community coming together in a tough time.
"The bushfires have been devastating for families across South Australia, and we are thinking of those on Kangaroo Island right now who continue to battle blazes which threaten their homes and livelihoods," Fagan said.
"We hope this event can provide an opportunity for footy and cricket fans to come together as a show of support for those affected as well as raise much-needed funds to support the recovery efforts.
"It will also provide an opportunity to recognise the CFS and other emergency service personnel who have sacrificed so much and battled bravely to protect people, property, livestock and wildlife over such a prolonged period of time."
Tickets for the match can be purchased through Ticketek from January 14.
Along with many other sports, the footy community has rallied around those affected by the fires.
Earlier this week, the AFL announced a charity match featuring the Vics and an All Star team, while on Friday, Essendon captain Dyson Heppell raised almost $300k when he shaved his trademark blonde locks.
