July 30, 2016 11:23 PM
NORTH Melbourne has stretched the gap between itself and top-eight challenger St Kilda to three games, all but sealing its finals spot with a 23-point win at Etihad Stadium on Saturday night.
In an historic match that saw champion Brent Harvey break the all-time VFL/AFL games record, the Kangaroos kicked away from the Saints to win 12.13 (85) to 8.14 (62).
In an underwhelming contest marred by poor skills, the Kangaroos finally found their groove in the fourth quarter to notch back-to-back wins for the first time since round nine.
They held a slight edge over their opponents for the first three quarters, but forward trio Drew Petrie, Lindsay Thomas and Ben Brown all stood up in the fourth term to open up a 40-point lead.
