Essendon +5.5 v Collingwood ($1.90)
The Bombers have been the major disappointment of the season but they are getting hot with three straight wins against the Swans, Lions and Suns. With their outstanding record against rivals Collingwood, they are a standout bet this week. The Bombers have covered 13 of the last 19 meetings including the last six. Essendon are a tremendous bet.

Under 167.5 Carlton-GWS ($1.90)
Three of the last seven Carlton games have tallied under 140 points so they have a very low floor. GWS have not topped 77 points in any of their last four and were limited to 29 in their last road game. This number is too big.

Harrison Jones 2+ Goals ($2.40)
Harry Jones has played seven games this season and has kicked at least two in four of those with at least two shots on goal in five. He will get plenty of opportunities against a fragile Collingwood.
