GWS Giants vs Brisbane Lions Preview
In the ANZAC Day clash in Canberra, both the Lions and Giants aim to rebound from recent losses.

The battle in the midfield will be crucial, with Brisbane seeking to utilize their clearance advantage and generate fast entries into the forward 50. Meanwhile, the Giants will look to exploit their opponents with quick counterattacks and capitalize on any defensive lapses.
