AFL Multi Tips Saturday 08/22: 3-Leg Parlay & Predictions
Ed Langdon (Melbourne) Over 0.5 Goals (+155)
Odds available at sportsbet at time of publishing
Ed Langdon at $2.55 to kick at least one goal represents genuine value when the model has him projected at 0.7 goals — a 19.6% edge over the implied probability of 39.2%. That projection is built on solid home-ground form: across his last five home games, Langdon is averaging 0.8 goals on 1.2 shots at goal with a marks inside 50 average of one, and his score involvements of 5.4 confirm he's consistently in the action at the MCG. The main caveat is his head-to-head record against the Bulldogs, where his goal average drops to 0.4 at home and 0.2 overall across the last five matchups — a meaningful split worth respecting. His overall goal accuracy of just 15% also keeps this from being a slam dunk. Still, the home context lifts his ceiling, and at these odds the model's edge is substantial enough to warrant backing Langdon to find the big sticks.
Judson Clarke (Richmond) Over 0.5 Goals (+190)

Clarke's away form is the headline here. He's averaging exactly 1.0 goals per away game over his last five, hitting the over 0.5 line in four of those five outings — an 80% away hit rate that dwarfs the 34.5% implied probability baked into the $2.90 price. That's a substantial gap the model is capturing with a 19.4% edge, projecting 0.6 goals against a line of 0.5. The underlying numbers reinforce the case. Away, Clarke is generating 2.0 shots at goal per game with a 50% goal accuracy and 0.6 marks inside 50 — enough forward presence to convert regularly. His L5 record against Geelong specifically also sits at 1.0 goals per game. Yes, the overall L5 figures look softer due to home performances dragging the average down, but this is an away game, and that split matters. At $2.90, the value is genuine.

Neal-Bullen's head-to-head record against GWS is the standout figure here. His L5 vs GWS goals average sits at 0.8 — double his general home average of 0.4 — and that opponent-specific pattern gives the model's projection of 0.8 goals genuine credibility. The book has this priced at 2.25 (implied 44.4%), but the model puts the true probability meaningfully higher, generating an 18.8% edge that's worth acting on. The supporting numbers hold up. At home over his last five, Neal-Bullen is averaging 1.6 shots at goal and 3 inside-50s per game, with a 30% goal accuracy across his overall L5. He's also hit this line in 4 of his last 7 outings overall. The current streak sits at zero, so there's a bounce-back element in play too. Playing at Adelaide Oval against a side he's historically productive against, the edge here is real.
