AFL GWS v Hawthorn Betting Tips

MCG, Sunday 1.10pm (AEST)

Match Prediction

The first match on Sunday afternoon heads down to the MCG, with the Giants hosting the Hawks. GWS carry winning momentum into this game following a 36-point victory over Carlton; not that it was anything to get excited about, but it did break a three-week winless run and keep them in touch with the top eight. Individual efforts dominated that performance; Greene (20 disposals/4 goals) and Finlayson (5 goals) were at the forefront and will need to lead the way again here.

The Hawks went down to the Bombers in Tasmania by 13 points, unable to close out the match after jumping ahead early in the 4th quarter. There was a sense that it was an opportunity missed to get their 4th win over the season. Mitchell is key for them, averaging 30+ disposals over the past 5 games. With impending poor conditions ahead in Melbourne, the score should be kept low. Not only that, the Giants have a slight edge on their opponents and should cover the line in this game.

Keep it simple this week with the big players expected to step up and lead the Giants to victory. Kelly has been dynamic in recent weeks and will be crucial to setting up victory. He is averaging 25.3 disposals so far in 2021 but you can expect more here. Just like in their last match, he will need to work in partnership with Whitfield. They both achieved this mark in two out of their past three matches. Then it is down to Greene, who came back into goal kicking form last week against the Blues. With confidence high, he will want to extend himself here.

Scooby's strength is assessing the overall team - what they offer across the field in a match and how the ethos of a club contributes to their success. Momentum also has a major impact on sports, and Scooby likes to explore this, while underpinning his judgement against a solid basis of statistical analysis. When combined with the aforementioned points, it combines for a holistic approach towards betting on rugby league.

Other sports he enjoys include Cricket, Horse Racing and NFL. There is a reason why Scooby ‘clicked’ with BYB from Day 1 - he loves his sport as much as we do.
