NORTH Melbourne coach Brad Scott says last night's devastating third-quarter has removed his lid of expectations as the Kangaroos put a frustrating Richmond to the sword was "possibly" the best 30 minutes in his 100 matches at the helm.

But Scott said while "a big spray was on the tip of my tongue", he remained calm at half-time as the Roos erased their 35-point deficit in 10 scintillating minutes sparked by key forward Drew Petrie.

It came after Scott substituted out Majak Daw and the avalanche of goals set up back-to-back North Melbourne victories for the first time since Rounds 2 through 4.

North will enter Saturday's roadtrip to Adelaide 7-4 and effectively two games safe inside the top eight after the 17.14 (116) to 13.10 (88) win at Etihad Stadium.

"I won't be putting any ceiling on what we can do in a quarter of footy anymore,' Scott said last night.

"We were hoping to be back somewhere near level pegging at three-quarter time and I think we erased the margin pretty quickly.

"It's mixed emotions I suppose. Relief is one emotion that comes to mind. I thought it showed unbelievably resolve and character of our group.

"To be outplayed for most of the first half and to be able to respond and for your leaders to stand up and take control of the game, they exceeded my expectations in the third quarter."

The Roos piled on the first 51 points of the third term and scored 8.1 from their first 11 entries, slicing the Tigers apart through total possession domination and deadly efficiency.

Scott heaped praise on former Tiger Robin Nahas who booted two goals and star midfielder Levi Greenwood.

The tagger started on Trent Cotchin and was then moved to first-half hero Dustin Martin as well as collecting 29 disposals.

Scott said Lindsay Thomas, a late withdrawal with hamstring tightness, was expected to return to face the Crows and star playmaker Daniel Wells was on track for a Round 15 return.

Full-back Scott Thompson could come under match-review panel scrutiny for a late hit on Jack Riewoldt and was suspended earlier this year for striking Travis Cloke.
