Jake Melksham (Melbourne) Over 0.5 Goals (-476)

Odds available at sportsbet at time of publishing

When it comes to finding value in the goalscorer market, sometimes it's the lesser-known heroes who shine the brightest. Jake Melksham, the crafty forward for Melbourne, is primed to make his mark against North Melbourne. Despite averaging just 0.8 goals in his last five away games, his recent form hints at a breakout performance. With an impressive 48.0% goal accuracy and 1.2 marks inside 50 per game, Melksham has been knocking on the door of goal-scoring success. Facing a North Melbourne side where he averages 0.3 goals per game in their last five encounters, the stage is set for Melksham to snag a crucial goal. With his current hit streak and hunger for goals, backing Melksham to score over 0.5 goals is a smart play with the potential for a handsome return.
