Seven Network Director of Sport, Chris Jones, said: “Following one of the most unpredictable AFL seasons in recent memory, what a fitting finale it was. Chris Fagan, who is one of the best people in the industry, has overcome so much through his entire career and has now led his Lions to premiership glory.
“Congratulations to the players and thank you on behalf of our production team to everyone within the AFL who allowed us to tell their stories.
“As we finish the 2024 season, we have our sights set firmly on a bigger and better 2025 AFL Premiership Season with more programming and analysis than ever before. And like Saturday’s Grand Final, every game we cover live will be streamed for free on 7plus Sport. It’s going to be massive,” he said.
