Round 11 Aussie Rules Football: Tough Week for Value
I usually put in three recommended bets for value, but this week it’s proving rather difficult to find them. The stand out value punt for me in round 11 is Richmond taking on a birdman-less Adelaide outfit. Richo is in brownlow medal form and Adelaide have been very inaccurate in front of goal lately. At $2.40, the tigers are a a great chance at good odds.
St. Kilda found some form last week, but against Melbourne this year that’s not saying a great deal. They’re paying $2.58 against the Bulldogs who are in good form at the moment, comfortably defeating the previously unbeaten Hawthorn last week, and they beat the Saints by 38 points earlier in the year. Without Murphy, the dogs have lost one very good avenue to goal, but I still think they’ll be too strong.
Finally the long-shot of the week. Carlton have a chance to upset a struggling Port Adelaide side, and with odds of over $6 for the win, there is a bit of value in them. For a safer option, Port by less than 40 points is still good value.
Suggested value bets
- Richmond to beat Adelaide paying $2.40.
- St Kilda to beat Bulldogs paying $2.58
- Carlton to win paying $6.10 and/or Port Adelaide by 1-39 paying $2.30
Good luck and happy punting!

The round was pretty straight-forward with all the short favourites coming up, except for Cartlon. It was an awesome finish, I came out on top with a few exotic bets paying off and a multi that included Carlton paid very well. I hope you faired well.
