Fremantle have fresh legs while the Kangaroos looked like they already had stones in theirs in their scrappy win against West Coast on Sunday. There are plenty of stats that separate these two teams at the moment like points from turnovers and inside 50s, but the simple eye test will do the trick here.
Fremantle are getting healthy and put together some good performance against tough competition, heading into the match on a three-game win streak before their bye last week. The Kangaroos on the other hand were woeful against the league’s wooden spooners and were lucky to escape with victory.
The Dockers backline has steadied, giving up an average of just 58.88 points per game in their last 3 outings and North’s inability to move the ball forward will see this match stay under the total.
A guy having no problems moving forward at the moment is Shai Bolton who has embraced his increased role in the midfield by having 2 three-goal games in his last 3 matches.
- Fremantle have won 5 of their last 6 matches against North Melbourne with 4 games being decided by a 50+ margin.
- 5 of the last 6 Fremantle matches have gone under the game total
- Fremantle are ranked 4th in Turnovers vs North Melbourne's defence ranked 18th
- Shai Bolton has 7 goals in his last 3 matches.

North Melbourne got lucky against the Eagles in Round 13, coming back from an 18-point deficit in the fourth quarter against a wasteful West Coast team who kicked 6 and 16 in the match which ultimately handed the game to the Kangaroos 62-52.
The Kangaroos have shown signs of promise, however matches like the one against the Eagles reiterate the fact why they are still fumbling down at the bottom of the ladder. The positive is how they rallied in the fourth winning the inside 50s (17-8) and clearances (15-4) with gun Harry Sheezel getting 12 of his 28 disposals in the final term.
North’s have been focusing heavily on their defensive game and they have seen positive signs at the back compared with the early stages of the season. It has been at the detriment to their attack though, ranked 17th in inside 50s and are the worst team in transition ranked 18th in points from turnovers, which is also due to their lack of forced pressure.

Fremantle appear to have got themselves sorted before their Round 13 bye, winning their three matches heading into their week off, beating GWS and Port comfortably and getting an impressive, grinding win against the Gold Coast in the wet in Round 12.
The Dockers had a lot of expectation on their shoulders that they haven’t really lived up to in the first half of the season but are now potentially at a turning point where they are beginning to create hype again.
A lot of their success has come from the strong ruck work of Luke Jackson that has done an outstanding job filling in for Sean Darcy while he has been injured. Darcy is now healthy and the Dockers have two genuine ruckmen that they can rely on. The challenge now is getting the most out of their big men in some sort of tandem attack.
