North Melbourne Kangaroos vs Essendon Bombers Preview
North Melbourne were enormous last week and were rewarded with a great win over West Coast in Perth.
Can they back it up against Essendon? It’s unlikely but they’re no longer considered the easy beats they once were.
Essendon can be electric and if Jake Stringer and the Bombers midfield get their hands on the ball they should be winning.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Essendon Bombers to win at $1.28 odds.
