Best Bet

Adelaide 1-39 @ $2.12

Bet Now

We’re picking Adelaide to win the game, but the –16.5 spread is too close for comfort. Therefore, the $2.12 odds for Adelaide to win 1-39 is much more appealing.

They look to get revenge at home over Collingwood, who won 78-68 in Melbourne earlier this year. The Crows are good enough to turn that performance around, especially given the Magpies recent form of four losses from their last five games.

We’re not sure why Collingwood has suddenly struggled, but with the Crows posting a good winning streak, they deserves to be favourites. It could be a classic game that comes down to the final quarter, so back Adelaide to win by under 40.

Same Game Multi

Adelaide 1-39, Riley Thilthorpe 3+ Goals, Brody Mihocek 2+ Goals, Total Match Points Under 164.5 @ $24.75

Bet Now

Punters get juicy AFL SGM odds for this game, including $2.25 for Riley Thilthorpe to score 3+ goals.

The Adelaide weapon comes off three consecutive games with at least three goals, and although we’re picking a low-scoring game, he should spearhead Adelaide’s offence. The odds are better than the $2 we priced him at.

Punters also get good odds for Brody Mihocek, who has been money this year. He has 2+ goals in four of his last five games, so to get $2.50 is a great price. That’s our best value bet for this game, so it’s worth including in AFL multi picks.

Best Value Bet

Brody Mihocek 2+ Goals @ $2.50

Bet Now

The odds for Mihocek to score 2+ goals is excellent, and with nine goals from his last five games, he’s kicking well for a struggling Magpies outfit.

They need him to kick well to have a chance of beating Adelaide, so there is pressure on him. However, he’s good at getting open, and he only needs to convert his set shots to cash for punters.
