After two home games and two wins since returning to action after the Covid enforced break, North Melbourne’s VFL side will return to the road for its Round 12 fixture.
That road will take North to VU Whitten Oval to take on a high flying Footscray side, with the Bulldogs currently sitting top of the ladder and unbeaten in their seven games this season.
Despite suffering a loss to Footscray in pre-season, North will enter the game full of confidence after tight wins over Coburg and Werribee, with the likes of Flynn Appleby and Eddie Ford particularly impressive.
Footscray enters the clash on a high, having defeated Coburg by 32 points last week, with AFL-listed Patrick Lipinski collecting 29 disposals, while Jamarra Ugle-Hagan was amongst the goalkickers.
The game will be shown live on Kayo.
