Brisbane, Hawthorn, look to put disappointing seasons behind them and start AFL 2020 anew.
There is only one Australian Rules Football team to win Premierships in every decade since the beginning of the league: the Hawthorn Hawks.
But it is now half a decade removed since the three-peat of 2013-2015, and the Hawks missed the finals series last season by one place.
The regular season was much better for Brisbane last year, as the Lions finished second. But two stunning losses, first to eventual champion Richmond 112-65, then to GWS (83-80), sent the Lions home early.
So both teams are looking for some redemption this year. But it is Brisbane that is much better prepared to make that attempt.Brisbane has also won four in a row against the Hawks.
Make it five, as the Lions roar to victory.
