After two consecutive losses to flag contenders Melbourne and Adelaide, the North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos will be eager to keep their unblemished Tassie streak intact as they take on Geelong at UTAS Stadium.
Sitting on eight points, a win for the Cats would likely see them finish the second week of Indigenous Round action in the top four, while the Roos require a victory to keep within touch of the top eight.
Make sure you're ready to go with this week's gameday guide.

Friday, September 16
North Melbourne v Geelong at UTAS Stadium, 5.10pm AEST
After a hot start in Adelaide a week ago, the Roos struggled to trouble the scorers post-quarter time and were ultimately overrun by the reigning premiers in the final term.
The 14-point loss sees North in 11th spot heading into its clash against the Cats, and with a challenging set of fixtures ahead, Friday night's result could prove crucial to how the rest of the season plays out.
With perhaps the stingiest defence in the competition right now, Geelong has managed to keep its total score conceded in this campaign to just 27 points, which may be an issue for a Roos forward line that has some issues clicking since Round 1.
However, the Cats haven't been notable scorers either, having managed totals of only 15, 27 and 11 so far.
The Roos have won all three clashes against Geelong since both clubs entered the league, will they make it four from four?
