With 57 fewer disposals than Fremantle, the loss at Etihad Stadium on Sunday meant only one North Melbourne player scored more than 100 Dream Team points.

It was Andrew Swallow who led the way with 140. He filled up the stat sheet with 30 possessions, 13 tackles and 6 free kicks for his seventh score of more than 100 for the season. In Round 2 against the GWS Giants he scored 98, which is something to keep in mind for DT Grand Finals this weekend.

In Round 2 it was Ryan Bastinac who led all scorers with 138-points. On that day he had a monstrous 44 possessions. It was at the height of North's 'handball-happy' stage of the year and it was reflected with 28 handballs in the 44 disposals.

28 goals at Blundstone Arena also helped multiple players post significant scores and it will be up to coaches to determine whether it's a possibility of happening again at Skoda Stadium on Saturday.

Almost half of those 28 goals came from players who weren't in the 22 on Sunday against the Dockers, meaning if there is another big score, the likes of Robbie Tarrant and Lachlan Hansen may be the ones to pick up the slack.

Alternatively it could come from someone like Brent Harvey which would be a delight to his 23,093 owners. He was well held by Ryan Crowley on Sunday and restricted to just 71-points so he'll be looking to bounce back against the Giants.

Sam Gibson had a quiet game possession-wise for the first time in weeks with just 14. It meant 60-points and his lowest score since being the substitute against Adelaide in Round 13. Considering his response to being the sub was to reel off 110 against St Kilda the next week, he'll most likely post a significant score at Skoda Stadium.
