Brisbane Lions Secure Historic Three-Peat

Published September 26, 2026 · Updated September 26, 2026 · The Guardian

The Brisbane Lions capped off a remarkable season by defeating Fremantle in a dramatic AFL grand final, securing their third consecutive premiership with a four-goal burst in the final minutes.

The Brisbane Lions overcame a 17-point deficit to defeat Fremantle 14.12 (96) to 12.17 (89) at the MCG, securing their third-straight AFL premiership in historic fashion. The defending premiers mounted an incredible comeback, scoring four goals in the final four minutes after Fremantle activated 'Wharfie Time,' with Logan Morris sealing the victory with the final two majors.

This remarkable achievement marks only the second time since 1981 that a team has won the grand final after trailing at three-quarter-time, following Geelong's comeback over St Kilda in 2009. afnews.co.za
