Collingwood Overpowers North Melbourne with Final Quarter Surge

Collingwood Magpies demonstrated their championship credentials in Round 11, defeating North Melbourne Kangaroos by 45 points. A remarkable eight-goal final quarter was pivotal in transforming a close contest into a decisive win.

The game remained tightly contested through the first three quarters, with both teams exchanging leads. However, Collingwood's midfield gained ascendancy in the final term, providing ample opportunities for forwards Jamie Elliott and Nick Daicos to capitalize.
