Brisbane spearhead Joe Daniher has lifted his side into a preliminary final, booting the final two goals of a stunning five-point win over GWS at Engie Stadium.

The Lions prevailed 15.15 (105) to 15.10 (100) in Saturday night’s semi-final, a topsy-turvy contest that ended the Giants’ season.

Brisbane, who next face Geelong at the MCG, trailed by 44 points in the third quarter before storming home thanks to Daniher.
