Dan Houston (Collingwood) Over 17.5 Disposals (-294)
Odds available at sportsbet at time of publishing
When it comes to backing a player to dominate the disposals count, Dan Houston stands out as a prime candidate for the upcoming clash at the MCG. With an average of 18.4 disposals in his last five home games, Houston has been a linchpin in Collingwood's midfield. His ability to find space and move the ball efficiently, with a solid 81.9% disposal efficiency, makes him a key playmaker. Facing Carlton, a team he's recently averaged 23 disposals against, only reinforces his potential to surpass the 17.5 line. Additionally, Houston's knack for intercepts and meters gained further solidify his impact on the game. With a recent hit rate of 6 out of 8 home games and an overall hit rate of 3 out of 4, Houston is a reliable bet to snag those crucial possessions and lead the Magpies to victory.
