North v Brisbane, who will be crowned champions of the trilogy 

Sarah Olle, Damian Barrett and Josh Gabelich are in recap mode on AFL Daily for season 2025.

Sam Docherty is one of the games most inspirational figures for all the adversity he has played through. Nat Fyfe goes out a 2x Brownlow Medallist, and Oscar McInerney became a footy favourite finishing his career a premiership player with Brisbane after missing the 2024 Grand Final through injury.
