Youi Brisbane Lions Academy products, Dan Annable and Isaac Waller are set to debut at VFL level this Saturday against Williamstown.
Both Annable and Waller were named in the recently announced Allies squad for the 2025 Marsh National Championships and will now suit up for the Lions VFL side at Brighton Homes Arena tomorrow.
Brandon Ryan makes his return from a facial fracture suffered against the SUNS in Round 6 and will replace Ty Gallop, who makes his AFL debut against Adelaide.
Following Deven Robertson’s elevation to the AFL, Charlie Offermans has been named to replace him, in VFL coach Ben Hudson’s side.
Tom Doedee has been managed following a run of strong form at VFL level while James Creighton is omitted.
Fans are encouraged to get down to Brighton Homes Arena with Lions hosting the Seagulls from 1:05pm.
