North Melbourne Werribee have secured a 30-point victory over Essendon at Arden Street Oval on Saturday, which extends the unbeaten record to 6-0.

The Kangaroos led at every break but were not able to pull away until the final term due to conceding goals late in quarters.

The final score at Arden Street saw the Roos win 11.8 (74) to 7.2 (44).

Zoe Savarirayan was the standout player of the day, who impressed again in her second game playing forward.

She once again booted three goals for the match, including a pearler in the first quarter. 

Midfield duo Ava Seton (23 disposals, five clearances, one goal) and Alana Barba (19 disposals, nine tackles) were both impressive, routinely winning the ball from the middle to set up the Roos attack.

The sealer

To go along with her 19 disposals, Charlotte Ryan kicked a beauty from a near-impossible angle to seal the game late in the fourth term. 

Tale of two halves

North Melbourne Werribee kicked six goals to Essendon’s five in the first half but were able to triumph and lock down the opposition’s attack in the second half, kicking five goals to two.
