Essendon vs. GWS |
 |
Essendon hit a rough patch with their 46-37 loss to Richmond last week, marking their sixth consecutive defeat. The Bombers have failed to beat the line in their last four games, with three losses by 25+ margins. On the other hand, GWS have secured four straight wins. Only Brisbane and Collingwood have better away records this season than GWS, who have won and beaten the line in their last four away games. GWS are one of five teams on 44 points, so they might push for a higher percentage if they’re dominating this game. Essendon have no playoff hopes.
Back GWS in the head-to-head at 1.09 (Dabble). For more risk, consider GWS 25+ at 1.33 (Dabble).
