Knockout action in the AFL continues on Saturday evening, with the Brisbane Lions looking to rebound from a loss on home soil when they face the confident GWS Giants for a spot in the preliminary finals. This is The Roar’s guide on how to live stream the match online, or watch it on TV.
The match is scheduled to get underway with the first bounce at 7:25pm (AEST) on Saturday, September 14, with it to be held at the home ground of the Lions, The Gabba in Brisbane.
The Lions come into the match on the back of a surprising season where they were able to finish in the top four, however, they risk bringing that all undone with a loss in this game, after they fell to the Richmond Tigers in last week’s qualifying final.
The Giants, on the other hand, will be full of confidence following their victory over the Western Bulldogs on home soil in last weekend’s elimination final, where the expansion club were near perfect.
There will be two ways to watch the match on TV in Australia, with Fox Sports and Channel 7, who are the rights holders for the AFL season, sharing the broadcast of each game throughout the first three weeks of the finals.
