AFL: Despite being plagued by accuracy issues in front of goal, Lions young Kai Lohmann insists the club isn't too worried about it, ahead of their elimination final against Carlton.

Sydney Swans chairman Andrew Pridham wants the AFL to award prizemoney to the minor premiers , declaring the only thing his club got for finishing on top was a “pat on the back” after the criteria for securing a $1m reward was changed in 2023.

New to Kayo?Last season, Melbourne, which didn’t make the grand final in either competition, was rewarded after the men’s team finished fourth on the ladder and the women’s team finished second.
