Round 4 AFL Betting Odds
Looking at the odds this week, there’s not alot of value going around. Collingwood V Port should be a close game, I expect the Pies to come home so I may put a small punt on them.
The slow starting Sydney don’t have a good record in Adelaide, but I can’t discount them just yet. It should be a tight game, but I think the Crows will be too strong in the end, small bet at $1.80. Fremantle really should have no trouble beating a depleted Melbourne side, but I would want a bit more than $1.48.
Finally, the Hawks have a chance to win on Sunday. They beat the Cats by large margins both times the teams met last year, and they’re playing at Tassie which is a very large ground that Geelong have never played on. That being said, Geelong have a much stronger looking forward line this year, and arguably Hawthorn’s best defender Trent Croad is out. If the odds were better I would get on the Hawks.
