THE PREDICTION

This Melbourne derby could be extremely one-sided with winless North Melbourne taking on a Melbourne side with a 100% record so far this season. The two teams are performing very differently with their respective records only telling part of the story. The Kangaroos have been dreadful and have been on the end of some huge scorelines while the Demons look the real deal having overcome some tricky challenges already. With pride on the line, it could summon a response from the Kangaroos but it is difficult to see beyond another thrashing with the Demons able to win this by at least 50 points.
