We're not in Cairns any more: Roos roll Dees to reassert dominance
The Kangaroos have put last week's scrappy loss in Queensland behind them, putting Melbourne to the sword at Ikon Park
NORTH Melbourne is back on the winners list once again after a week-long sojourn, defeating Melbourne comprehensively by 31 points in the final Grand Final Eve public holiday game at Ikon Park on Friday night.
After leading by 18 points early in the second quarter, the Demons were held goalless across the second and third terms, the Kangaroos kicking away for a 10.5 (65) to 5.4 (34) result.
It marks the end of Melbourne’s undefeated streak for the 2026 season. To make matters worse, there’ll be a watch on Shelley Heath-Barker who was unable to play out the game due to a calf complaint.
Round 7 Team | Set for table-topping clash
Melbourne will make just one change for the most anticipated match of the season.
MELBOURNE has recalled crafty goalkicker Alyssia Pisano for its blockbuster, top-of-the-table clash with North Melbourne.
The Demons have their sights set on knocking off the Kangaroos for the first time since 2023, with the past three matchups against the reigning, back-to-back premiers going the way of North Melbourne.
The injured Lauren Clifton makes way for Pisano’s third game of the season.
The clash takes on even more significance for the Dees as captain Kate Hore breaks new ground as the first AFLW Demon to 100 games, while Maeve Chaplin also lines up for her 50th game.

AFLW round seven: Injured Dees star left heartbroken on the bench as rampant Kangaroos make a statement
Roos captain Jasmine Garner has praised her team and compared their past week to “COVID days” after flu went through the group, forcing the sick players to keep away from the group.
But the Roos still found a way to bounce back from their loss to Hawthorn in Cairns last week and their poor start tonight which saw the Dees kick the first three goals.
“[At] quarter-time, [it was like] we’ve been in this position before,” Garner told Seven post-game.
“I’m just really proud of the group. The hunger was there, the drive was there. That was a bloody great win.”
