Kangaroos wary of Dockers: McIntosh

NORTH MELBOURNE won't take Fremantle lightly when the two sides meet at Subiaco Oval on Saturday afternoon, according to ruckman Hamish McIntosh.
Despite languishing in 15th place on the AFL ladder with a 1-11 win-loss record, Fremantle have been competitive in most of their games this season and McIntosh said it would be a tough task for the Kangaroos to secure the four premiership points.
"They're a dangerous side," he said. "I know they've only had the one win but you've got to think of the games, they've been in front four or five games going into three-quarter-time against quality opposition. They only lost to Geelong by a point.
"They may only be 1-11, but they are a much better side than that. Going over there as well, playing them on their home ground is going to be a very tough challenge.
North Melbourne have lost their past two to Brisbane and Geelong, and McIntosh said it was vital for the Kangaroos to come away with a win to consolidate their place in the top eight.
"It's definitely a must-win for us," McIntosh said. "We're sitting eighth now with plenty of teams chasing our tail.
"We've got to get a win on the board."
