2025 GRAND FINAL PREVIEW - Heidelberg vs Dandenong City
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
It's a two-man team this week as Josh and Lachie look ahead to the decider.
Dandenong City have become the first sixth-placed team to qualify for a Grand Final, after stunning Premiers Avondale on their own deck. Could Nick Tolios be about to surpass his own Cinderella tale from 2019?
Standing in their way is Heidelberg, a team that deserves to cap a sterling campaign with silverware. But with an injury cloud swirling around captain Ben Collins, will Johnny A's men stumble at the final hurdle?
Meanwhile, Zoran Markovski departs as head coach of the Avengers, and we review Preston's first season back in the top flight.
And there are two tasty playoff finals at Lakeside on Sunday to raise the curtain - Brunswick Juventus vs Springvale White Eagles, and Brunswick City vs Melbourne City. Will we see Dunstan Reserve in the top flight?!
