Fremantle Dockers vs North Melbourne Kangaroos Preview
Fremantle playing at home to the bottom of the ladder North Melbourne is a pretty straightforward tip, especially given the $1.08 head to head price in favour of the Dockers.
The Dockers old guard of Fyfe and Mundy got the job done in what was a tight game against the Crows last week, giving Freo a confidence-boosting win outside of Perth.
Even if the Kangaroos were not down the bottom of the ladder backing up a trip to WA after playing in Geelong is a big ask.
North Melbourne had a crack against the Cats last week, going down by 30-points and were even in front at quarter time – a victory within itself.
The market has given Freo a -42.5 point handicap, but if the Kangaroos can show the same effort against Geelong last week there’s no reason why they couldn’t cover the line in this contest.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Fremantle Dockers to win at $1.10 odds.
