The Unofficial Aussie Sports Awards 2025 | Best, Worst & Weirdest of the Year

The Unofficial Aussie Sports Awards 2025 are finally here 🏆
Two comedians. Zero credentials. Far too many opinions.

Comedians Steven Bradshaw and Jeremy Dooley wrap up the year in Australian sport by handing out awards nobody asked for — celebrating the best, worst and weirdest moments in Aussie sport from the past year.

From Aussies starring on the world stage in the NBA, F1, UFC and Soccer, to chaos at home across AFL, NRL and Cricket, plus the niche and the bizarre — Surfing, WWE, Athletics, Curling, Discus and even Sheep Shearing — nothing is off limits.

🏆 This Year’s Awards Include:

• The Candid Camera Award
• Aussie Joe Bugner Memorial Award for Best Knockout of the Year
• Worst Venue of the Year
• Comeback of the Year
• Mama Said Knock You Out (LL Cool J Award) for Biggest L of the Year
• Robbery of the Year
• The Un-Australian Award
• Charlie Kirk In Memoriam Award (Brought to you by the City of Perth)
• Snowflake Award – Softest Fan Base
• Einstein Award – Smartest Fan Base
• Aussie Sporting Moment of the Year

Plus the End-of-Year Aussie Athlete Power Rankings, counting down the Top 10 Australian athletes who had the biggest year, alongside all your favourite weekly segments:
Aussie of the Week, Aussie Legend, The Comment Section, Random Sports People, Big Questions, Josh Giddey Random Stat of the Week, Top 5 and Weekly Power Rankings.

No insight. No authority. Just opinions — and most of them questionable.
