North Melbourne Kangaroos vs Brisbane Lions
AFL Odds: Kangas $1.80 (-3.5) / Lions $2 (+3.5)
This match-up pits two teams that surprised the AFL world with their season-openers up against each other.
While plenty predicted the Lions to have a good year, nobody could have foreseen the 44-point mauling of the Eagles last week.
The Kangaroos surprised punters by just how poor they were, succumbing to a 82-point thrashing at the hands of the Dockers.
Why Kangaroos can win
Alarm bells were surely blaring out at North Melbourne H.Q. after they were dispatched by a monster 82-points in Round 1.
Many were asking how a defeat as heavy as that could occur in the opening round, when players are supposed to be excited and ready for the new season.
North fans will be hoping that this was just a one-off, their team needing an extra hit-out before clicking into gear.
Back at home, and with one of their best looking squads in recent years, look to the Kangas to bounce back.
They'll have to cope without defender Ed Vickers-Willis though, who was the third player to suffer the dreaded ACL rupture last weekend.
Why Lions can win
All the Lions need to do is play half as well as they did last week to get the win.
The problem is that this is easier said than done.
Brisbane showed last year that they are a completely different team when playing home and away.
And the bookies seem to be of a similar mind, installing the Lions as underdogs in the AFL odds, despite how good they were in the opening round.
The young Lions will be looking to new recruits and close friends Lincoln McCarthy and Lachie Neale to replicate their performances to inspire a big away win here.
