Win Prizes Season 2025 Game Previews

[Tonga Bob]

Happy New Year to all who celebrate and observe!

As is tradition, I am running comically late in wrapping up the Poster of the Year competition and 2025 is no exception. We had 15 outstanding previews presented to us, so I want to start off by giving a huge thank you to heavho mattis117 King Huskii dockerfemme ubiquitous226 Purple Jesus kingswood71 Dump Truck samFFC thistimeforsure Mr Cheese BeinPurplenGreen freo84 RonnieRaven & largebus for some chmpagne previewing! You've all given great effort on behalf of the board and we appreciate what you've providied! I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with in 2026.

It was difficult to whittle the list of previews down to a group of five finalists, but at the same time it was really easy because the board did the work for me. You see, democracy dictates that the preview OP's with the most reacts make the cut. So in order of number of reacts received here are the finalists:

Elimination Final at home vs Gold Coast by largebus: https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/thre...the-hostplus-sponsors-both-of-us-cup.1400888/
Round 16 at home vs St Kilda by Mr Cheese: https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/ding-ding-round-2-freo-vs-saints-sunday-3-10pm.1397773/
Round 6 away vs Melbourne by Purple Jesus: https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/freo-vs-melbourne-round-6.1394553/
Round 17 away vs Sydney by BeinPurplenGreen: https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/thre...-kepler-freo-v-swans-scg-6-july-2025.1398052/
Round 22 away vs Port Adelaide by RonnieRaven: https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/thre...mantle-anchors-cutting-edge-in-depth.1399428/

I'll put up a poll in the thread shortly which will stay open for a month or so. Your job as the Freo board is to read the final five previews and vote on your favourite, the author of which will become the Freo board Poster of the Year for 2025. Please take the time to do this, the finalists put in the effort to entertain and inform us so the least you can do is show your recognition for their efforts.

And as is also tradition, each voter gets a democracy sausage.



Happy voting, and come get y'all glizzies!​

What’s this? Do I pick a round and predict who wins?

Something like that. You pick a round and do a write up previewing the game which usually involves a prediction of the result. Check out the OP to see which rounds are available, there's also links in there showing what other people have done in previous seasons. Get amongst it!
