AFL Round 22 in the 2025 season begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the MCG between Hawthorn and Collingwood. Friday night footy should be an absolute bloodbath with the Cats hosting the Bombers at GMHBA Stadium, although we are still on Jezza watch as he approaches the ton. Super Saturday follows with a juicy four-match slate for fans to enjoy, headlined by the Lions vs Swans at the Gabba, with the Lions chasing a top two finish. Finally, the round comes to an end on Sunday with a three-game slate, and it's potentially all one-sided matchups on the card, although it'll be interesting to see how the Demons perform in their first match post-Goodwin, as they host the desperate Bulldogs.
