North Melbourne v Brisbane at Arden Street Oval, 5.10pm AEDT
After knocking off the Bulldogs in a highly combative affair in Round 5, the Kangaroos followed it up by dismantling an inexperienced Swans, keeping them goalless for the evening and scoreless after quarter-time last Sunday.
Jas Garner, yet again, was one of the best afield in the royal blue and white collecting 18 disposals, 10 tackles and two goals, while Ash Riddell starred with seven inside 50s and a game-high 25 touches.
This week will be a much tougher test however, with the Lions eager to remain in the top two on the ladder.
Despite its inaccuracy in front of goal in Round 6, Brisbane had little trouble overcoming Essendon at Moreton Bay Central Sports Complex, triumphing 8.14 (62) to 3.0 (18) to reach five wins for the season.
In the ever-changing weather conditions, the Lions shot out to a 30-point half-time lead and managed to keep the Bombers scoreless until late in the third term.
Brisbane ruck Tahlia Hickie and midfielder Emily Bates gained the ascendancy around the contest early and played massive roles in paving the way for the win.
Hickie finished with 31 hitouts and a goal while Bates gathered 19 disposals and nine clearances.
Will North claim a significant scalp as the home and away season approaches its conclusion?
