Sydney Swans vs Brisbane Lions: Tom Papley Under 16.5 Disposals (-115)

Odds available at sportsbet at time of publishing

Tom Papley is set at under 16.5 disposals, and the odds are -115. Our numbers show he has been having a tough time getting the ball lately. He's typically making about 12 disposals per game, and his recent stats suggest he might struggle to hit this mark against Brisbane Lions. While the Lions are a solid team, they also have a strong defense that could limit Papley's chances even more. With the way he's been playing, there's a real risk he might not reach 16.5 disposals in this matchup. It's not a sure thing, but it looks like a good chance to take.
