Cairns is in the North of Brisbane means 'Cairns is part of Brisbane, and it is in the North' There would be situations where 'X is in the North of Y' is the correct one to use, but this isn't one of them.

Grammatically:
"Cairns is in the north of Brisbane"
"Cairns is north of Brisbane"
are both correct but mean different things.

Geographically:
Only "Cairns is north of Brisbane" is correct.
