Melbourne Demons vs North Melbourne Kangaroos Preview
The Dees asserted themselves back in the finals picture on Wednesday with a 51-point thumping over the Crows.
Melbourne’s first half was the stuff of nightmares, but Simon Goodwin has to be proud of the way his club turned things around to hold Adelaide to just one goal in the final two quarters.
North Melbourne were on the opposite end of the scoreboard in their 33-point loss to Geelong.
The Roos were big winners themselves over the Crows back in Round 9, but they failed to capitalise on a pretty strong first quarter against the Cats as the game got away from them.
Melbourne forward Alex Neal-Bullen will face the Match Review panel after his sling tackle against the Crows, but other than that, both clubs came away from their respective midweek games unscathed.
The key battle on Sunday will come in the midfield. The Dees have been unstoppable over the last month as Christian Petracca, Max Gawn and Clayton Oliver continue to rack up big numbers and Brownlow votes.
Surprisingly enough though, North currently ranks third in tackles this year, so there’s every chance they keep this interesting.
