Geelong v Brisbane is the AFL grand final we had to have. The pair of modern-day powerhouses have two of the past three premierships, and are the only sides to win more than two-thirds of their games over the past six seasons.
They have already met in four finals in that stretch. Now, finally, they come together in the game that matters most. The 2025 grand final will be the first time in their 126 seasons that the Cats and Lions clash in a VFL/AFL decider. The winner at the MCG on Saturday will become the first club to claim two premierships this decade, as well as the first to secure five flags since the turn of the century.
