A lot of footy fans don’t like West Coast. They should be tuning in to this.
Best Bet
Melbourne -59.5 ($1.90)
The Eagles average losing margin over the last month is 82 points. They now have to play the best team in football.
Melbourne have started their premiership defence in remarkable form. St. Kilda did not play that badly last week against the Demons, but they still never gave them a look in.
The Dees will relish returning to the site of last year’s premiership triumph. The 2018 Preliminary Final, where they were smashed by the Eagles at this ground feels like an eternity ago.
West Coast are battling fitness, form and covid and none of the additions this week look likely to change things.
Mark down the Eagles for another huge loss.

Same Game Multi
Melbourne -59.5 / B. Fritsch 3+ Goals / T. McDonald, C.Petracca 2+ Goals / M. Gawn 1+ Goal ($10.50)
All the Dees prime movers should be hitting the scoreboard here. Big Maxy loves a goal and is hitting them well, while Fritsch tends to rack them up when the Dees are winning by big margins.
Value Bet
Melbourne -96.5 ($6.20)
If the Eagles can lose by an average of 82 over the last month, it’s not too hard to project the best team in the competition putting 100 on them.
