Best Bet

Melbourne –11.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

Punters get a value line for Melbourne. We priced them at around –21.5, so getting a –11.5 line is good shopping for the AFL Round 12 game.

The Demons have bounced back from an awful start to the year to post four wins from their last five games, including wins over Sydney and Brisbane in the last two weeks. Beating last year’s finalists is a good form guide, especially when facing a hapless Saints outfit.

The Saints have lost three on the bounce and four of their last five. It’s not a good look for the team placed in 14^th on the AFL ladder, and we can’t see that improving on Sunday, so take the generous line for Melbourne.

Same Game Multi

Melbourne –11.5, Kysaiah Pickett 2+ Goals, Jack Melksham 2+ Goals, Total Match Points Under 169.5 @ $9.75

Bet Now

Our goal scoring options are Kysaiah Pickett and Jack Melksham for Melbourne. Pickett comes off a five-goal performance against Sydney, and he has been one of their most reliable kickers with nine goals from his last three games.

Punters don’t get massive odds at $1.56 for him to kick 2+ goals, but it’s worth including in AFL same game multis. Melksham is paying more at $1.99, following seven goals from his last two games. He’s starting to find his range, and it has been quite some turn around.

Our multi also includes under 169.5 points, which is mostly because we can’t see St Kilda putting up a big score. They scored 61 points last week, and they haven’t scored over 80 points in four of their last five games.

Best Value Bet

Melbourne Wire-to-Wire @ $2.45

Bet Now

We love a wire-to-wire bet and Melbourne should get the job done for punters on Sunday afternoon.

They have been coming out of the blocks humming recently, and the forward pressure should be too much for the struggling Saints to handle.

$2.45 is a value price for a team that often wins the first quarter and doesn’t look back. After strong wins over playoff contenders, Melbourne should fancy its chances of never being headed.
