在 AFL 第 16 輪比賽中，布里斯本獅子隊以 126 比 83 擊敗了排名第二的悉尼天鵝隊。

Before the game, statistics showed that the Swans had a better defensive record than the Lions. However, despite Sydney bringing back key players Errol Gulden and Tom McCartin, Brisbane dominated from the start. The two teams used different tactics: Sydney focused on a slow, short-passing style, whereas Brisbane emphasized fast movement and efficient clearances to move the ball forward.

賽前數據顯示，天鵝隊的防守紀錄優於獅子隊。然而，儘管悉尼迎回了關鍵球員 Errol Gulden 與 Tom McCartin，布里斯本仍從一開始就掌控了局面。兩隊採取了不同的戰術：悉尼專注於緩慢、短傳的風格，而布里斯本則強調快速移動與高效清除，將球向前推進。

Brisbane's success was based on a strong defense led by Harris Andrews, who stopped many of Sydney's attacks. This stability allowed Brisbane to launch counter-attacks, leading to goals from Charlie Cameron, Cam Rayner, Logan Morris, and Jarrod Berry. In contrast, Sydney's goals mostly came from Brisbane's mistakes, such as errors made by Jaspa Fletcher and Darcy Gardiner.

In the midfield, Will Ashcroft played a key role with 30 disposals, which limited the impact of Sydney's Isaac Heeney. Although Chad Warner performed well for the Swans with four goals, the rest of the Sydney team struggled to handle the high pressure. Finally, Kai Lohmann scored late goals to ensure that Sydney could not close the gap in the final quarter.
