-
Josh Dunkley is a Brisbane Lions player and has taken on a leadership role within the club in 2026, including co-captain duties alongside teammates Harris Andrews and Hugh McCluggage. This marks a continuation of his high-profile AFL career after moving from the Western Bulldogs in 2022.[3][4][6]

In 2026, Dunkley has publicly discussed his contract status and leadership responsibilities, signaling ongoing importance to the Lions as they pursue further premiership contention. A recent video interview covers his leadership focus and commitment to the team’s goals for the season.[6]

For the most current, day-by-day updates (injury news, contract developments, or match-by-match performance), check Brisbane Lions official channels and major AFL outlets, as they regularly publish timely statements and game-day summaries.[5][6]
If you’d like, I can pull a quick, up-to-date digest from official Lions sources and top AFL outlets and summarize in a short bullet list with dates.
