There’s concerns around Brandon Starcevich’s future after the Lions defender suffered another head knock in the 2025 AFL Grand Final against Geelong.

Starcevich collided with Ollie Dempsey’s shoulder in a contest in the third quarter after Dempsey was nudged by Callum Ah Chee.

The reliable Lions backman, who has a history of concussions, was immediately treated to by medicos before coming off the ground and going down to the rooms in sad scenes before being subbed out of the game.
