Since the club was introduced to the AFL in 1869, the North Melbourne Kangaroos have become well known in Premiership circles for their ‘Shinboner’ spirit and its ability to win them games when their backs are up against the wall. The Kangaroos have won four AFL flags, with success coming in 1975 and 1977, then again in 1996 and 1999. With former Brisbane Lions hardman Brad Scott at the helm, North Melbourne will look to be a force in seasons ahead.

North Melbourne coach Brad Scott is certain his team are on the right track, even if their win-loss record this season is way off course.

Much-mourned Australian rock goddess Chrissie Amphlett famously sang of the fine line between pleasure and pain. For Hawthorn star Cyril Rioli on Sunday, there was both.

For me to make the trip to Etihad Stadium is a seven-hour round trip. For a 4.40pm game on a Sunday, even when my team the Swans are involved, it is not an option when I have to work on Monday. But Sunday was different. I made the trip because I wanted to see one [...]
