AFL WEEKLY WRAP
AFL Round 17 of the 2025 season delivered a series of compelling narratives, with dominant performances, coaching controversies, and emerging finals contenders.Collingwood solidified their premiership credentials by dismantling Carlton 17.13 (115) to 8.11 (59), marking their eighth consecutive victory. Nick Daicos was instrumental in the win, while Carlton's coach Michael Voss faced scrutiny after an unusual stint away from the coaching box during the game, reflecting the mounting pressure as the Blues' finals hopes dwindle.
In Brisbane, the Lions showcased their dominance with an 18.12 (120) to 14.8 (92) win over Port Adelaide, propelled by Zac Bailey's five-goal haul. The match also gained attention due to an optical illusion on the Lions' Indigenous guernsey, sparking widespread social media discussion.
Meanwhile, GWS Giants climbed into the top eight with a commanding 16.15 (111) to 8.4 (52) victory over West Coast Eagles, though the game was marred by a controversial umpiring decision that ignited debates about the sport's physicality.
Adelaide Crows continued their ascent, defeating Melbourne and securing third place on the ladder, though concerns about their consistency remain. The round also saw Sydney's Tom Papley exit early due to a hamstring injury in their clash against Fremantle, adding to the Swans' challenges. As the season progresses, Round 17 has intensified the race for finals positions and highlighted the volatility of team performances.
