Odds available at sportsbet at time of publishing
Jai Newcombe is favored to go Under 21.5 disposals based on his recent form. Despite a solid L5 average of 16.8 disposals, his historical performance against Collingwood (24 vs. 25.3 disposals) suggests a potential dip. With a 19.5% model edge, Newcombe's recent turnover rate of 3.2 per game could impact his total disposals. His L5 contested possessions of 8.6 and lower kick average at home (6.8) further support this under bet. Additionally, his 77.2% disposal efficiency may not be enough to reach the 21.5 line, especially with an average of 3.2 turnovers per game. Bet on Newcombe to stay under 21.5 disposals in this matchup.
Zak Jones (St Kilda) Under 20.5 Disposals (-120)
Odds available at sportsbet at time of publishing
Zak Jones is poised to go under 20.5 disposals due to his recent away form averaging 14.4 disposals.
