North Melbourne right-hander Penn Murfitt helped his team edge Parramatta by the score of 2-1. Murfitt kept the opposing lineup in check. The 8th-place Kangaroos improved to 34-40.

North Melbourne used a well-timed hit by Alan Morgan to capture the win. The shortstop socked a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Kangaroos ahead, 2-1. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

Afterward, Kangaroos manager G Maloney was ebullient. "That was a fun game to coach," he told a group of reporters, adding, "I hope it was just as fun to watch."
