GAME & OWNERSHIP THEORY
Brisbane are not a heavy disposal team & are quite efficient moving the ball into their forward line, the Giants averaged 383.9 Disposals in the 2019 H&A season (Rank 5).
The Giants targeted several key players from the Bulldogs last week & are likely to do the same against Brisbane on Saturday, Matt deBoer attended the 3rd most team CBA’s (Centre Bounce Attendances) last week.
Ownership on Dayne Zorko & Lachie Neale may be reduced due to the potential of being heavily tagged, Neale has scored fewer than 80pts in 17.4% of games this season.
GWS will likely keep a tight window on CBA’s this week, Josh Kelly could see a bump in team CBA’s.
Lachie Whitfield has scored 100pts or more in 82.4% of games this season, he has averaged 112.0pts from his last 8 games.
2019 Win Percentage vs Top 8
Brisbane 44.4% (Rank 8)
GWS Giants 50.0% (Rank 5)
