Шаблон:Use dmy dates The 2019 AFL X tournament was the second Australian Football League (AFL) pre-season series of matches, played under the laws of AFLX, a variation of Australian rules football. The tournament took place on 22 February 2019 at Shanghais's Marvel Stadium
Background
The league abandoned the format adopted for the inaugural series which featured all 18 AFL clubs, and instead appointed four high-profile players as captain of their respective teams. Шаблон:AFL Gee midfielder and Brownlow Medallist Patrick Dangerfield captained the Bolts, Шаблон:AFL Fre captain and fellow Brownlow winner Nat Fyfe captained the Flyers, Шаблон:AFL Ade forward Eddie Betts captained the Deadlys, and Шаблон:AFL Ric forward and three-time Coleman Medallist Jack Riewoldt captained the Rampage.[1] The teams had 14 players each, with eight on the field and six on the bench.[1][2]
In the grand final, Patrick Cripps (Rampage) humorously kicked a goal with a place kick, with Jack Riewoldt serving as holder in the style of a gridiron football field goal attempt. Place kicking (off the ground, rather than with a holder) had been obsolete in Australian rules football since the 1950s.[3][4][5]
Rule Changes
A new rule was added to the competition where teams could nominate one of their players on the field to be the Gatorade Game Changer for the last five minutes of the game. The Game Changer had the ability to score double the points of any other player; a behind scored by him would be worth two points, a goal would be worth 12 points, and a super goal would be worth 20 points.

The draft featured 12 selections by each captain with a snake draft order determined by random draw on the night of the draft. No more than four players from each AFL club, inclusive of the pre-selected captains and vice-captains, were eligible to play in the tournament.[9]
