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.

Welcome back for the 4th episode for the 2026 season, and we turn our attention to the Collingwood Magpies. Still a powerhouse on their day, the Pies remain a genuine contender despite an ageing list.
We break down Collingwood’s 2025 season, their finals exit, and how much is left in a veteran-heavy side including the ageless Scott Pendlebury. From Nick Daicos’ continued Fantasy dominance to the surprise rise of Ned Long, we assess who boomed, who disappointed, and where value might lie heading into 2026.
We also dive into the Magpies’ ins and outs, including the departure of key forwards, debate potential breakouts like Ned Long, Patrick Lipinski and Isaac Quaynor, and weigh up ultimate Fantasy picks ahead of the 2026 AFL Fantasy season.
