Odds available at sportsbet at time of publishing
When it comes to reliable ball magnets in the AFL, Marcus Bontempelli's name sits right at the top. As the Western Bulldogs gear up to face North Melbourne at Marvel Stadium, Bontempelli's recent form at home speaks volumes. Averaging a commanding 26.8 disposals per game over his last five home matches, he's been a midfield maestro, consistently finding teammates with precision (74.8% disposal efficiency). Against North Melbourne specifically, he's even more potent, averaging 28 disposals in their past encounters.
With an average of 26.8 disposals in his pocket and the line set conservatively at 22.5, Bontempelli seems poised to eclipse that mark comfortably, especially with a recent streak of 3 hit games at home. Expect him to orchestrate play, split packs, and rack up possessions as he leads his team into battle. Snagging this bet feels almost as assured as Bontempelli splitting the middle from 50.
