Odds available at sportsbet at time of publishing
When it comes to backing a player prop bet, you want consistency and impact, and James Worpel of the Geelong Cats embodies just that. Worpel's recent form is nothing short of impressive, with an average of 22.2 disposals in his last five home games. Facing the Western Bulldogs, a team he's historically tallied 25 disposals against, the stage is set for Worpel to shine. With a solid contested possessions average of 11.2 and a knack for gaining significant meters (323.2 on average), he's a pivotal figure in Geelong's midfield.
Factor in Worpel's exceptional disposal efficiency of 63.8% and a track record of maintaining possession (turnover avg: 5.2), and you have a player who not only finds the ball but uses it effectively. With a current hit streak of 15 at home and 8 overall, backing Worpel to surpass 14.5 disposals is a smart play in what promises to be a closely contested match at GMHBA Stadium.
