North Melbourne vs Brisbane Lions Preview
North Melbourne is set to take on Brisbane in Hobart this Sunday, with the two sides entering the match in vastly different form. The Kangaroos are reeling from a narrow 65-62 defeat to Essendon, despite an impressive showing from Tristan Xerri, who notched up 25 disposals, 16 contested possessions, and 10 clearances. In contrast, the Lions are riding high after claiming their seventh win of the season with a convincing 66-49 triumph over Gold Coast, driven by Will Ashcroft’s 34 disposals and 17 contested possessions. Brisbane has dominated this matchup in recent years, winning the past seven encounters — including a commanding 113-43 win at Gather Round in 2024. With superior form and a dominant recent record, Brisbane heads into the clash as clear favourites.
