I was a little worried about Lace v Flat but not too much, as I had no idea how red would clue Stadium/Rainbow/Crab at once and Lace would be an easy +1 guess with my 3rd clue. If red hadn't stumbled at Power it certainly would've been a nail biter if a misstep meant not getting that 3rd turn.
JR4: There were too many grey words for Power to reliably stretch that clue to 3 IMO, as it's not very specific. I could've see it potentially hitting all of Millionaire, Ninja and Plate. I can't really comment on the cultural thing, maybe Stadium could've worked with more European-focused red team? Unfortunately even if there are several good words for pairs between Stadium/Crown/Battery (gladiator, lights, power etc.) I can't think of a word that has a good chance to hit all three at once... Spotlight perhaps?
I was thinking something like Coastline could work for Rainbow/Flat/Crab, but I have no idea how to include Stadium in there as well. While Search wasn't the best clue, I don't think I could do much better.
