GWS head to Marvel Stadium on Sunday afternoon to face an Essendon side that looks completely cooked in 2026, and the line looks far too small.

Best Bet

GWS -39.5
Line
Bet Now
$1.90

This line looks far too small.

Essendon have lost three of their last four by more than 40 points, with the last two coming by 67 and 90. Dropping Parish and Perkins feels like a desperation move from Dean Solomon, even though Langford and Ridley return. This is a team running out of ideas.

The Giants are unpredictable but can destroy teams when they want to. Their last four wins have all come against top-eight teams in Geelong, Fremantle, Melbourne and Brisbane, with the last two coming by more than 40 points. They have not played a bottom-six team in seven weeks, so their form is genuinely strong. Two of their last three wins against Essendon have also come by more than 40 points.

Lachie Whitfield returns among four changes for the Giants. Back them to win by plenty.


Same Game Multi

GWS -39.5, J.Stringer 3+ Goals, T.Greene 2+ Goals, C.Oliver 30+ Disposals
Bet Now
$3.50

Jake Stringer has kicked three or more goals in three straight games against Essendon. Toby Greene has kicked two or more in five straight against the Bombers. Inside midfielders fill up against Essendon and Clayton Oliver has had 30 or more disposals in three straight games.


Value Bet

J.Stringer 5+ Goals
Player Goals

$6.00

Stringer has kicked 17 goals in his last four games against Essendon and kicked seven against Fremantle two weeks ago, his second five-plus goal haul in seven games. He will not get a much better match-up than this all season.
