AFL 2020 Grand Final Preview
It is never too early to take a look at how the new AFL season will play out and we're getting the jump on the competition.
The trade period has come and gone and unless a draftee comes in and dominates from the get-go we now have a rough idea how each team will line up outside the mitigating factors such as injury and form.
AFL 2020 Grand Final Best Bet
Richmond
The best bet going into 2020 is Richmond.
An off night against Collingwood in the 2018 preliminary final cost the Tigers the opportunity to win three-straight premierships, but their dominant win in the 2019 Grand Final solidified their dynasty credentials.
The core group of superstars at the Tigers are still at the peak of their powers left of playing together and we would be shocked if they didn’t go back-to-back.

AFL 2020 Grand Final Best Smokey
Western Bulldogs
You need superstars to win premierships and the Bulldogs are stacked with top-tier talent.
Marcus Bontempelli, Jack Macrae and Josh Dunkley are among the game's best midfielders while the speed and creativity of Jason Johannisen, Lachie Hunter and Caleb Daniel complement the trio perfectly..
The main issue last year was a lack of key position players, which is why the additions of Josh Bruce and Alex Keath will put the Dogs right into the premiership mix.
With some natural improvement to the likes of Aaron Naughton, Josh Schache and Bailey Smith the Dogs should be going deep into September.

AFL 2020 Grand Final - Team To Watch
Hawthorn
The Hawks will fly under the radar in season 2020 but we can see them pushing for a top-four berth.
They did well to finish in the top 10 last year after losing the reigning Brownlow Medallist Tom Mitchell before round one.
The recruitment of Jon Patton from the Giants alongside their acquisition of Sam Frost from Melbourne will bolster the Hawks' key position stocks, which was an area of weakness in 2019.
Tom Mitchell comes back into the team after a year out and another pre-season into Jaeger O’Meara and the Hawks should start to reap some rewards.

AFL Grand Final 2020 - Team You Can Forget About
North Melbourne
North Melbourne finished 12th last season and it’s hard to see that changing this year.
They lack star talent, with Ben Brown the only player close to being an A-grader at the Roos and that’s what is needed to even make finals now in this competition.
Their lack of young talent is concerning considering they’re supposed to be rebuilding and it looks like being an average year again for the Kangaroos.
