St Kilda vs. GWS Predictions
—
Best Bet
Hawthorn 1-39 @ $2.10
We predicted Hawthorn to win the title in 2025, and the Hawks haven’t let us down so far. They have four wins over GWS, Carlton, Essendon, and Sydney, so they have beaten some tough teams to start the year.
Port Adelaide is only 1-3, with the only win coming against Richmond, but there has been specking for the Power to cover the spread. We don’t think they will win the game outright, but they’re good enough to lose by less than 40 points.
Hawthorn 1-39 is the best bet for the final game of Round 5. It should have no problem winning the game, but the Power are good enough at home to keep it close.
Same Game Multi
Hawthorn H2H, Nick Watson 2+ Goals, Connor Rozee 25+ Disposals, Total Match Points Under 172.5 @ $8.50
Hawthorn head-to-head pays $1.43, which is short, but it’s worth including in multis. We also fancy under 172.5 points, especially based on their respective form. The Hawks have won their games with totals of 76, 80, 111, and 96 points.
Port Adelaide’s last two games have resulted in totals of 161 and 132 points, so we are backing under 172.5 with confidence.
Nick Watson is one of many goal scorers for Hawthorn, and he’s paying generous odds. Watson is a $1.93 chance to score 2+ goals having scored six in totals this year. He is never far away from a breakout performance, so include him in the mix.
Lastly, we’re taking the short $1.66 odds for Connor Rozee to have 25+ disposals. He has totals of 35, 39, 22, and 20, and although his numbers are declining, he should bounce back with a big performance in the middle of the field.
Best Value Bet
Lloyd Meek 2+ Goals @ $5.75
Lloyd Meek isn’t one of the more notable scorers for Hawthorn, but he scored a good goal last week, and his confidence levels should be rising.
Meek opened his year with a two-goal performance, so he’s capable of doing it. Punters get $5.75, so he’s worth the risk as a value bet.
