Accumulation Betting: Week 2

WEEK 2 - AFL Multi

Welcome to week 2, were we shall continue to double down our luck with our current accumulation funds!
Last week we took a big punt on 3 games and this week will no different. Why? Because I found it truly difficult to split the difference in odds between the games. Pound for pound, all the selections below are just as likely as the next and with them all carrying an average of $1.30+, it seemed like a good week to double down! Let's get to it!

GWS over West Coast.
Pretty simple choice this one really. I know the Eagles are trying to maintain a top 8 position, but the GWS can't afford to lose a chance at a home final this late in the year. There is also the potential return of Jeremy Cameron, who is a massive win catalyst for the Giants. With the retirement of Priddis and Mitchell, West Coast will be setting their sights on the future years and rebuilding somewhat...
and of course, West Coast is fucking terrible on the road! Making $1.25 a nice booster for any multi this week.

Hawthorn over Carlton
I'm surprised that Hawthorn are actually going into this at just $1.33, I would of expected something more along the lines of $1.22, but I'm not complaining. Carlton have 8 out for the season including names such as; Rowe, Silgvagne, Cripps, Kerr and Curnow. Having these old heads our for the season means that the "children" have to fill in the blanks... and those kids are spent from this season! Hawthorn, admittedly, have their own list of injuries but i think the polish and experience on the field will prove too much for the young Blues.

Essendon over Gold Coast:
Now, this game I was actually VERY dubious about including! I would forgive anyone who gave it a wide birth for security reasons, but with the Dons flying up to Gold Coast at just $1.38, I thought it was worth having a look at. I did a quick ladder predictor, and realistically the Bombers HAVE to win both of their last two games this season. They can't afford to lose one, let alone yield to the Gold Coast. Also, let's be honest, the GC is in shambles and will be fore a while still...
$1.38 for finals contenders? Yes, please!

All up we get combined standard odds of around $2.29 and taking advantage of Lad Brokes 'odds boost' promotion our total result amount will be $170.79!
Once this week is done, we can start earning some REAL cash!

Question for this week: Would you have considered St. Kilda over North Melbourne?
