The Lockout Podcast
After the Lockout Podcast's first season in 2024 we are back to preview the 2025 season with Josh, Hawko, Ryan and Croxy for all your AFL Fantasy needs.
We review all the teams in ladder order in reverse for 2025 in the lead up to the start of the 2025 AFL season.
The boys talk about players from a fantasy standpoint who excited them from 2024, and also who they are looking to turn to in 2025.
After we make our way through the whole league, we will run through our Defence, Midfield, Forwards and Rucks and give you insights into who we are finalising in our own teams for 2025.
