I don’t know about you, but when I go to the cinema I make sure that I get there early. I get my choc top, find my seat, navigate my way through whatever madness Val Morgan tries to show me. Thanks Val, but I’m not interested. Then the previews begin…
Man, I love the film previews! They entice. They thrill. They get you ready for the cinema experience. And if the film’s no good then the two-minute summary saves you wasting a couple of hours where you could be online discussing your favourite footy team’s chances in their next game. Which is a great segue into the reason for this thread: Game Previews.
In 2017 & 2018 we as a group have provided some champagne previewing, including such efforts as "Derby Preview Melt", “The Kersten Cup” and “The Magpie”. And to keep the tradition going I’m officially calling for nominations for people to provide us with previews of Fremantle games for the 2019 season. The criteria (known henceforth as The Four Commandments) as decreed by Righteo during his time as Preview Convener is as follows:
The fixture according to my novelty-sized membership fridge magnet is:
Round 1 vs North Melbourne @ home cardamon
Round 2 vs Gold Coast @ away Yeti
Round 3 vs St Kilda @ home dockerfemme
Round 4 vs WCE @ away tonygeeks
Round 5 vs GWS @ away BeinPurplenGreen
Round 6 vs Western Bulldogs @ home Unique Name
Round 7 vs Adelaide @ away theGav56
Round 8 vs Richmond @ home dockshark
Round 9 vs Essendon @ away Allikat
Round 10 vs Brisbane @ home Tonga Bob
Round 11 vs Collingwood @ away TheInjuryFactory
Round 12 BYE im_a_lazy_sod
Round 13 vs Port Adelaide @ home go_the_dockers
Round 14 vs Melbourne @ away vidwhal
Round 15 vs Carlton @ home kingswood71
Round 16 vs WCE @ home cardamon
Round 17 vs Hawthorn @ away stax on the mull
Round 18 vs Sydney @ home XXRL
Round 19 vs Western Bulldogs @ away yyou
Round 20 vs Geelong @ home Square Peg
Round 21 vs St Kilda @ away Righteo
Round 22 vs Essendon @ home BeinPurplenGreen
Round 23 vs Port Adelaide @ away Wally Walpamur
Best of luck, and have fun!

And to keep the tradition going I’m officially calling for nominations for people to provide us with previews of Fremantle games for the 2019 season. The criteria (known henceforth as The Four Commandments) as decreed by Righteo during his time as Preview Convener is as follows:
- Use this thread to sign up for any match you'd like to preview in the upcoming season. First in, best dressed, so if you want a specific match try and get in early;
- There is no criteria to sign up apart from being a Freo board poster, you don't have to have been a poster for a long time or have made a lot of posts, but just make sure you're in a position to write one when it's your week. If you can't do it when the time comes, let me, or one of the friendly mods (Allikat Tayl0r ) know and they will probably sort out a suitable punishment and/or replacement. I'll take the bulk of the responsibility for this venture so hassle me before the others if possible;
- Have fun with the preview. Make it interesting, it doesn't have to be written under a certain guideline or include x,y,z- write it the way you want, use pictures, videos, whatever. A good dose of humour never hurts either;
- This
isn't IS might beis DEFINITELY a competition, so previews judged the best by your peers (most liked, how else do you quantify "best" on the internet) will receive a shiny badge. Gotta incentivise it somehow and there's no incentive quite like a barely visible badge under your username. Hit up previous winner Arcassius to check it out.
