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.

Round 11 Preview - Houston, We Have a Problem - AFL Fantasy 2026
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The bye rounds are here and rankings are starting to shift quickly. Cash generation is slowing down, premiums are underperforming, and trade decisions are becoming more important than ever.
This week on The Lockout Podcast, the boys break down everything from Round 11, including failed captain picks, rookie decisions, and the player everyone is rage trading after another horror score.
We discuss the best upgrade targets, rookie downgrade options, and how coaches should approach the next few weeks with the bye rounds now in full swing. There’s also a look at injury concerns, returning premiums, and which mid-season draft players could become fantasy relevant.
The episode also features Brownlow votes, flops of the week, trade strategy discussion, and plenty of debate around how aggressive coaches should be with the extra trades during the bye rounds.
If you’re trying to survive the byes, build cash, and complete your team before the run home, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
