Melbourne 0.1.2 (8)
MELBOURNE has drawn first blood with Jack Watts kicking a goal from directly in front.
Watts capped off a nice five minute burst by the Dees which included an errant kick for goal by midfielder Colin Sylvia.
Sylvia missed a golden opportunity to give the Dees the edge when he missed from 30m out.
But North Melbourne responded with Lindsay Thomas answering the challenge marking deep inside 50 and making no mistake.
Demon father-son prospect Jack Viney has made a solid start picking up early possessions in the midfield.

It will also be the first time former Kangaroos utility Cameron Pedersen lines up against his old side after forming part of a deal which saw Jordan Gysberts traded to North Melbourne.
Gysberts is one of a number of new faces on Kangaroos list which includes rebounding defender Ben Jacobs and developing ruckmen Daniel Currie and Majak Daw.
Veteran Brent Harvey is expected to play the majority of game time in both matches while no risks will be taken with Daniel Wells and Jack Ziebell.
Harvey is not eligible to play in the regular season until Round 7 after being suspended in the Kangaroos heavy elimination final loss against West Coast.
