r/AFL 2020 Season Previews
Hey all, it’s the start of the year which means it’s about time for the annual r/afl Season Previews (not really) , It doesn't matter if you're wildly optimistic, entirely nihilistic, or stubbornly pragmatic, we want to see what you've got to say.
SO Bangers, what should we include in our previews?
We want to see anything that you feel is relevant to the 2020 season, some things like;
-
List Changes (delistings, retirements, trades, drafts)
-
Current playing list (maybe with positions mentioned)
-
Players on notice for season 2020
-
Players to lookout for in 2020
-
2020 review/summary
-
Expectations for 2020 season
-
Best 22 for 2020
-
Concerns for the coming season
-
A hilarious reference in the title
In the past people have also included things like leadership group, coaching staff, club history, training ground, etc. as well
How do we go about making a preview
Your best bet is to first off check your clubs subreddit and check if there is a post up there asking for contributions. If there is already a post comment with things you think should be added and your opinions on things like best 22.
If there isn’t already a post up, put it up and wait for your fellow supporters to contribute. You’ll also have to designate one person to post the preview to the sub
When does my team post their preview?
Previews will be posted every two days in a random order, apart from Carlton and Richmond who will be our last two previews since they open up round 1. The schedule for each team's preview is as follows:
Wednesday 12th February - GWS
Friday 14th February - North Melbourne
Sunday 16th February - ST Kilda
Tuesday 18th February - Brisbane
Thursday 20th February - Melbourne
Saturday 22nd February - Western Bulldogs
Monday 24th February - Collingwood
Wednesday 26th February - Port Adelaide
Friday 28th February - Geelong
Sunday 1st March - Essendon
Tuesday 3rd March - West Coast Eagles
Thursday 5th March - Fremantle
Saturday 7th March - Hawthorn
Monday 9th March - Sydney
Wednesday 11th March - Gold Coast Suns
Friday 13th March - Adelaide
Sunday 15th March - Carlton
Tuesday 17th March - Richmond
Thursday 19th March - Round 1 Starts
We hope that with the amount of notice everyone's been given, each sub can post their reviews on time. If there are any issues (particularly if your club sub isn't the most active and are having problems finding one or more people to write stuff), please PM me.
As is tradition if a club doesn’t produce their preview on their day (VIC Time is what we go by for this) a sledge thread will go up and flairs will be faded see Collingwood 2017
Hope you all bring your A game this year
Lots of love
Bangers xx

Maybe this is the year I finally remember to contribute to ours.
the most important thing to contribute is a title quote. the only part people care about
We were robbed of a truly awe inspiring Greatest Showman title last year but r/adelaidefc complained that it was 'too wordy' and 'not very good' and that 'I'm out of touch with reality and no one liked the Greatest Showman you old hack.'
Benj Pasek's and Justin Paul's acceptance speech for "This Is Me" winning the best original song at the 2018 Golden Globes was just too long to be a title, unfortunately.
Another round of bullets from KJF hits my skin, fire away, coz today and every other day, I won't let the idea of not using Greatest Showman lyrics sink inn
