Brisbane Lions History
The Brisbane Lions were formed in late 1996 following a merger between the Fitzroy Lions and the Brisbane Bears. After early challenges, the club rose to dominance under coach Leigh Matthews, winning three consecutive AFL premierships from 2001 to 2003 with a champion playing list that defined an era.
Following a lean period, the Lions returned to finals contention under Chris Fagan, beginning a sustained resurgence from 2019. That rise culminated in premiership success in 2024 and again in 2025 and the three-peat in 2026, re-establishing Brisbane as one of the AFL’s leading clubs.
