Carlton vs. West Coast Predictions

Best Bet

Carlton 40+ @ $2.15

It could be one of those years for Carlton fans, which they’re all too familiar. However, after four straight losses to open its account, Carlton should improve to 1-4 against a terrible West Coast team.

The Eagles were thumped 132-51 by GWS last week, and they have posted totals of 51, 68, 75, and 49 points. That’s borderline embarrassing, and although Carlton isn’t exactly an offensive powerhouse, it’s good enough to put West Coast to the sword.

The current line is –33.5, which is also a good bet, but we’re so confident in the Blues winning big, the best value is with 40+ at $2.15. Punters might as well take better odds for a game that shouldn’t be close from the opening bounce.

Same Game Multi

Carlton Wire-to-Wire, Charlie Curnow +3 Goals, Brodie Kemp 2+ Goals, Total Match Points Over 176.5 @ $3.60

There is no reason to believe that Carlton shouldn’t be leading at the end of every quarter. A wire-to-wire win is the only thing we can envision, so it should pay to include the $1.67 odds in your Carlton vs West Coast multi.

This game should allow the Blues’ goal scorers to regain their confidence. They’ll get plenty of chances, namely Charlie Curnow and Brodie Kemp. Curnow had three goals against the Western Bulldogs, but he had only one last week against Collingwood. Kemp didn’t score last week but had five against the Bulldogs, so we’re including them in our same game multis.

Over 176.5 is a fair AFL line, and most of the points will come from Carlton. The final score could be around 120-66, and it’s worth including to boost payouts.

Best Value Bet

Tom De Koning 25+ Disposals @ $2.25

It shouldn’t be hard for Tom De Koning to have 25+ disposals against West Coast. He has already posted two 28 disposal games in 2025, and this is his best chance to post a season high.

Inconsistency has plagued his year, much like the entire Carlton team, but there is no better chance for De Koning and the Blues to rack up massive scoring and disposal totals.
