Brisbane Lions Co-Captain Lachie Neale and midfielder Jarrod Berry are both available to play in Friday night’s Qualifying Final against Geelong.
Neale missed the last three matches of the home and away season with a quad strain, while Berry was sidelined for the last game due to a dislocated shoulder.
The premiership pair give the Lions a boost of valuable finals experience ahead of the clash with the Cats at the MCG.
Lions key forward Eric Hipwood is also progressing well as he recovers from a calf strain and could return within the next fortnight, while defender Tom Doedee will undergo wrist surgery putting an end to his 2025 season.
