Brisbane Lions roar to back-to-back AFL titles with dominant Grand Final display

In a commanding performance at the MCG, the Brisbane Lions thrashed Geelong by 47 points to clinch the 2025 AFL premiership, securing back-to-back titles in style.

Will Ashcroft was named Norm Smith medallist for the second consecutive year, after amassing 32 disposals and a slew of clearances to lead the Lions’ midfield dominance.

Despite a tight first half, Brisbane broke away in the second half—bolstered by strong efforts from veteran leaders like Lachie Neale and Harris Andrews—to seal a memorable victory and etch themselves further into AFL history.

Final score: Brisbane 18.14 (122) defeating Geelong 11.9 (75).
