After 18 gruelling weeks, the NFL playoffs are finally here, and there are plenty of Australians in action.
Daniel Faalele and the Baltimore Ravens will be spectators after a heartbreaking loss in the final game of the season, but fortunately for NFL fans down under, there are still plenty of local hopefuls in the running for the Super Bowl.
In Super Bowl LIX, Jordan Mailata and the Philadelphia Eagles knocked off the Kansas City Chiefs to claim the NFL's ultimate prize. Will they repeat, or will a different Aussie be crowned in glory.
AllSportsPeople looks at every Australian in this year's NFL playoffs.
Jordan Mailata (Philadelphia Eagles)
It hasn't been the most convincing championship defence to date, but Jordan Mailata and the Philadelphia Eagles have kept their chances of back-to-back Super Bowls alive after clinching the NFC East division.
The Eagles went through a rough patch in the middle of the season - with the man behind Mailata and the rest of the offensive line, Jalen Hurts, often coming under heavy scrutiny - but recovered to finish with an 11-6 record.
Mailata played in 16 games this season, with the team going 11-5 with him in the lineup. He was rested for week 18 as the Eagles now turn their attention to the San Francisco 49ers in week one of the playoffs.
Tory Taylor (Chicago Bears)
The Chicago Bears took a massive leap in the 2025 season, finishing one spot above the Eagles in the NFC standings.
The Bears finished with an 11-6 record, as Caleb Williams and the rest of the offence came up clutch in many big games to help snatch the NFC North division away from the Green Bay Packers.
But Aussie punter Tory Taylor was still called upon a number of times, and put in a good return to help the Bears with strong field position. He punted a total of 60 times for a return of 2,870 yards, good enough for an average of 47.8 yards per punt.
The Bears now prepare for their old rivals the Packers in week one of the playoffs.
Mitch Wishnowksy (Buffalo Bills)
Perhaps one of Australia's best Super Bowl chances, although Mitch Wishnowksy and the Buffalo Bills will have a difficult road to get there.
With the consensus best quarterback in the sport in Josh Allen, the Bills haven't needed the powering foot of Wishnowksy as often as other teams, but he's still been reliable when called upon.
Wishnowksy punted a total of 38 times in 12 games in the 2025 season, going for an average of 45.3 yards per punt.
After finishing second the AFC East division and with a record of 12-5, the Bills will head to Jacksonville to take on the Jaguars in week one of the playoffs.
Michael Dickson (Seattle Seahawks)
The Seattle Seahawks will be on the couch like the rest of us in week one of the playoffs, after finishing as the number one seed in the NFC thanks to a brilliant win over the 49ers on the weekend.
It means punter Michael Dickson can put his feet up for an extra week, which he will need after a powerful season in 2025.
Dickson punted a total of 52 times, going for an average of nearly 50 yards per punt, ranking him amongst the very best in the sport.
The Seahawks will take on either the Los Angeles Rams or the Carolina Panthers in week two of the playoffs.
Jeremy Crawshaw (Denver Broncos)
Dickson won't be the only Aussie putting his feet up in week one, with Jeremy Crawshaw and the Denver Broncos taking out the AFC on the other side of the bracket.
Crawshaw also had a busy season, punting a total of 75 times for a monster 3,573 yards, resulting in an average of 47.64 yards per punt.
The Broncos clinched the AFC with a win in week 18, climbing to a record of 14-3. They will face either Wishnowksy and the Bills or the Jaguars in week two of the playoffs.
