GWS Giants at a glance for the 2020 AFL season.

GWS

Coach: Leon Cameron

Captain: Stephen Coniglio

Last five years: 11-4-4-6-2

Premierships: None.

Key five: Stephen Coniglio, Josh Kelly, Jeremy Cameron, Toby Greene, Lachie Whitfield.

One to watch: Stephen Coniglio. The classy onballer was a huge loss after a knee injury ended his season in round 17, but will hit 2020 at full pace after successful surgery. The heart-and-soul player turned down overtures from rivals to sign a seven-year contract and was an obvious choice to replace Callan Ward and Phil Davis as captain.

Ins: Lachie Ash (Murray U18), Tom Green (GWS Academy), Tom Hutchesson (Adelaide SANFL), Sam Jacobs (Adelaide), Jake Riccardi (Werribee).

Outs: Aiden Bonar (North Melbourne), Dylan Buckley (delisted), Brett Deledio (retired), Jonathon Patton (Hawthorn), Adam Tomlinson (Melbourne).

Best line-up:

B: Sam Taylor, Phil Davis, Aidan Corr

HB: Zac Williams, Nick Haynes, Heath Shaw

C: Lachie Whitfield, Stephen Coniglio, Josh Kelly

HF: Zac Langdon, Jeremy Cameron, Toby Greene

F: Harry Himmelberg, Jeremy Finlayson, Brent Daniels

R: Sam Jacobs, Tim Taranto, Jacob Hopper

I: Callan Ward, Matt de Boer, Sam Reid, Lachie Ash

Predicted finish: 3rd
