Episode Details

The Brisbane Lions, with their defensive prowess and precise short kicks, are the AFLs top contenders in the 2026 season. However, the competition is fierce, with 17 teams vying for their crown. The expanded finals format adds excitement, and big off-season moves have shaken up the landscape. Despite injuries and goal-kicking luck influencing last years results, adjusted stats suggest real threats like Geelong, Collingwood, Adelaide, and the Bulldogs. Melbourne, despite losing players, could also bounce back. The bigger playoffs add new tiers of achievement, keeping more teams in the race.
