LIVE AFL Finals: Dusty back as Brisbane under huge pressure in do-or-die eliminator

Richmond star Dustin Martin has returned just in the nick of time as his side faces Brisbane in an Elimination Final showdown at the Gabba.

The Lions (15-7, 119.3%) will be desperate to improve upon a 1-5 record in finals under coach Chris Fagan and have been hit with three forced outs: Cam Rayner and Noah Answerth due to suspension and Jarryd Lyons due to injury.

The Tigers (13-8-1, 121.6%) come into Thursday’s match on a four-game winning streak and loom as one of the dark horses of the finals series.
