Brisbane Lions AFLW: The Road to Redemption

A Season of Triumph and Trials

After a disappointing Season 6, Brisbane Lions captain Bre Koenen returned with a vengeance in Season 7. Regaining her peak form, Koenen led the team to a remarkable turnaround. The Lions also welcomed former Brisbane Roar player and medical student Lucinda Pullar into their ranks, bolstering their squad's versatility.

Renewed Leadership and Determination
