North Melbourne coach Brad Scott says no one at the Kangaroos is getting carried away by their AFL-best form, with early-season losses keeping them grounded.

After their seventh-straight win last weekend, Scott’s side meet the finals-bound Western Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon in a potential elimination final preview.

Scott says coach Luke Beveridge has been outstanding at the Bulldogs, saying “you can’t help but be impressed” by their leap up the ladder in 2015.
