We last met in Round 3, 2022 at the Gabba. We had a record-breaking 108-point slaughtering of a North Melbourne. The Lions finished with 11 goalkickers and at times were raffling their chances as players queued up to add their name to the list. Dayne Zorko (31 disposals) flourished at half-back, Hugh McCluggage (29) was busy and Jarryd Lyons (28, two goals and four assists) was damaging in the forward half.
