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.

Market Update: This game has been shifted to Metricon Stadium in Queensland during the week and the scramble has seen North Melbourne’s odds blow out.

North opened as the $3.14 outsiders but have failed to attract many bets and that’s seen their price drift to $3.78. Essendon have been $1.37 into $1.27.
