Melbourne led North Melbourne 6.4-40 to 3.7-25 at Half Time, and it finished 11.4-70 to 10.7-67 in Melbourne's favour, despite them going scoreless in the final quarter against the worst defensive team in the league.
12 scoring shots for 12 goals in the second half, only the 3rd game in the history of the league in which neither team kicked a behind in a half.
An extremely improbable occurrence, when you consider Melbourne were ranked 17th for scoring accuracy (49%), although North Melbourne, despite being third-last in points for, are ranked 1st for scoring accuracy (61%).
If you do the math, that game was the 16,530th game in league history.
16,530/3 = 5510.
A 1 in 5,510 chance of happening.
Greater odds than Leicester City winning the Premier League title.
