The North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos will host Yartapuulti (Port Adelaide) in Indigenous Round on Sunday afternoon.

The Roos claimed their fifth win for the campaign last weekend, after storming home at Fremantle Oval to defeat the Dockers by 45 points.

They face a Yartapuulti outfit that fell to the Swans on an inaccurate day in front of the big sticks.

Indigenous Round

The significant contribution of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and girls to Australian football and the broader community will be celebrated this month, with the return of AFLW Indigenous Round this week.

On Sunday, there will be a live Welcome to Country from Aunty Joy, a DJ playing Indigenous and Torres Strait Islander music, an interview with our Indigenous guernsey artist Emma Bamblett, and Indigenous-owned businesses at our street party including Kinya Lerrk and Wanyara.

The opposition 

The Power was outlasted by Sydney in their Round 6 clash, relinquishing a third-quarter lead to ultimately fall by 15 points at Alberton Oval.

It was the club's fifth defeat of the season with their solitary win coming back in Round 3 when it wiped off a 20-point deficit to knock off the Saints by eight points.

Young midfielder Abbey Dowrick has been one of Yartapuulti's best players so far this year, and is averaging 19.5 disposals and 6.3 tackles per game.

The in-form Roo

Tahlia Randall

There's no shortage of in-form players at North Melbourne following two strong wins over the Giants and Dockers, but it's hard to go past Randall.

The versatile key forward kicked a career-high five goals against Fremantle last Sunday and clunked three contested grabs to help power her side to a massive away victory.

Along with Jasmine Garner, Randall claimed eight AFLCA AFLW Champion Player of the Year Award votes taking her total tally to 13.

Last time we met

Yartapuulti 4.5 (29) def. by North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos 7.12 (54) - Round 8, Season 7 (2022)

The Roos weathered a stern Power challenge in the first half when the two clubs met for the first time last season, but a Jasmine Garner masterclass saw her side leave South Australia with the four points.

The superstar midfielder notched 27 touches, nine marks, 717 metres gained and two goals at Alberton Oval, while Alice O'Loughlin was lively up forward, finishing with two majors as well.

Coach Darren Crocker threw captain Emma Kearney into the midfield at half-time to get some more dominance. The move had the desired effect, as the battle-hardened Kangaroos onballers managed to get the upper hand around the ground against the Power’s youthful brigade.
