North Melbourne Kangaroos odds

The North Melbourne Kangaroos are in a period of transition on and off the field.

After topping up their list looking for an elusive AFL Premiership win earlier in the decade, the Roos were forced to face the reality that comes with an ageing squad no longer capable of playing finals football and began their rebuild.

North Melbourne improved in 2023 but it was clear that they weren’t good enough to challenge most of the competition for four quarters. The Roos young talent will continue to find their feet at the top level; however, they seem to be a long way off contending for a premiership at the moment.

Is there value surrounding North Melbourne in any of the top 2024 AFL betting markets? Let’s take a look.

Best North Melbourne bets for the 2024 AFL season

Where are the best North Melbourne Kangaroos bets in the AFL futures markets that matter?

Click on the tabs below to get more analysis on these markets:

• Kangaroos 2024 premiership betting
  They say that you have to be in it to win it, and that rings true for North Melbourne in 2024. However, after winning five matches across the last two seasons, the Roos would have to improve out of sight to challenge the top teams in 2024.
• Wooden spoon betting
  For similar reasons as to why the Kangaroos can’t win the 2024 premiership, North Melbourne will be in the fight to not finish in last place and avoid the wooden spoon. North will rely on their young talent and high-end draft picks to win pivotal games against bottom-table teams to avoid claiming the competition’s unwanted award.
• Rising Star betting
  George Wardlaw only played eight games in his debut season, which means he is eligible for the 2024 Rising Star Award. The fourth pick from the 2022 National Draft showed his potential when he was on the field in those eight games. Wardlaw is the second favourite at +350 (with Ladbrokes) to claim the award in 2024.

Kangaroos players to watch in 2024

Cameron Zurhaar

Born: 22/5/1998
Games: 99
Goals: 133
Position: Forward

Cameron Zurhaar went into 2023 off the back of a strong season in 2022 that saw him register 34 goals in 19 matches. However, his 2023 season wasn’t as good, with the 25-year-old only kicking 20 goals in 16 games, and he only kicked multiple goals on six occasions throughout the year. Zurhaar played more time in the midfield, but in 2024, we expect him to play in the forward line, and he will need to kick more goals for the Roos to continue their climb up the ladder.

Tarryn Thomas

Born: 25/3/2000
Games: 69
Goals: 56
Position: Midfielder

Tarryn Thomas missed the opening rounds of the 2023 season due to off-field discretions that saw him suspended from the club for a period of time. However, once the 23-year-old returned to the team, he repaid the faith that Alistair Clarkson and the Roos showed him with strong form and good performances for a struggling Kangaroos outfit. Averaging just under 20 disposals and one goal per game from his 12 matches, Thomas showed that he can provide a spark in the midfield and forward line when needed during games. With a full preseason and no interruptions in 2024, Thomas can take his game to the next level and join the likes of Jy Simpkin and Luke Davies-Uniacke as experienced top-end midfielders at the club.

Harry Sheezel

Born: 13/10/2004
Games: 23
Goals: 3
Position: Defender/Midfielder

Harry Sheezel hit the ground running in 2023, racking up 30 plus disposals in four of his first five matches. The 19-year-old midfielder turn defender went on to average 27 disposals for the season, which saw him claim the 2023 Rising Star Award, North Melbourne’s Best & Fairest, the AFL’s Best First Year Player Award, and North Melbourne’s Best Young Player Award at the end of the year. Obviously, it will be hard for Sheezel to continue to rack up the awards in his second season, but his ball-winning skills will be tested as many teams will target him in 2024.
