LIVE: Dees shock, North smash Lions

NORTH Melbourne has handed a young Brisbane Lions team a football lesson at Etihad Stadium.

Inspired by veteran Brent Harvey, the Kangaroos cruised to a 87-point win, 17.23 (125) to 6.2 (38).

The Lions were decimated by the late withdrawals of Tom Rockliff and Joel Patfull, while Dayne Zorko played by was well below his best.

SHEEDY: WHY I LOVE TOMMY HAFEY

WHATELEY: DEMONS GROW IN ESTEEM AND ASPIRATION

Lindsay Thomas kicked four goals for the Kangaroos while eight other teammates got on the scoresheet.

Captain Andrew Swallow made his return from an Achillies injury and had 18 touches and five clearances before being subbed out.

Paul Roos' men punished the Tigers pathetic kicking for goal to clinch their third win for the season, 14.7 (91) to 9.20 (74).

Demons captain Nathan Jones led the way with 33 possessions while Jack Watts kicked three goals, including the sealer in the fourth quarter.

Dustin Martin was the Tigers best with 31 touches but Shaun Grigg (0.3), Shane Edwards (2.2), Jack Riewoldt (1.3) and Ben Griffiths (0.3) butchered the ball in front of the big sticks.

Earlier, both clubs paid tribute to the late Tom Hafey via a 10-minute tribute video and a minute's applause.

MATTHEW PAVLICH IS 'SUPERDOCKER'

In the final game of the day, Matthew Pavlich will become the first Fremantle player to reach 300 games when he leads the Dockers out on to Subiaco Oval to take on Geelong.
