We'll endeavour to run through the form, incorporate appropriate stats and also supply a betting prediction which won't always just be who will win.


GEELONG v GWS

Sunday 11 May @ GMHBA Stadium

What a clinker of a match this would be if at their best. The big issue is how far are we from that?

Geelong comes off a win where they could well have lost. Or was that a loss that they did well to win?

It certainly was the best match of 2025 so far. And that was helped by the explosion of one P Dangerfield. His intervention when needed got the Cats over the line.

Without him there isn't much drive. It was a full throated version of a Selwoodian masterpiece.

Match Geelong GWS Ground
Last time they met 11.8 [74] 11.12 [78] GMHBA
Last 10 matches 4 wins 5 wins 1 draw
Notes At Kardinia Park record is Geel 4/GWS 4.
GWS has won the last 4 here by an average of just 8 points.
Facing the Giants comes at a good time for the away side. GWS need a win and doing it under pressure would be double the fun.

In fact they love it here. There would be no team with as good a record here beside the obvious Cats.

To get away from Sydney, collaborate as a squad and enjoy the longer ground will only help those big forwards needing room to move.

They haven't been in grand form and losing four on the bounce would not help anyone's cause. So let's go for an upset.

Match Selection: GWS by 9 points

Suggested Bets: GWS @ $2.80
