    Brisbane making the interceptor defenders earn it tonight. They've already lined up Gawn and Petty. Let them know if they are going to fill the hole they will cop some treatment.

    We should have done the same last week.

    Yep, good start for Brisbane.

    This start from Brisbane makes me so much more disappointed with our start. Their physicality around the contest has been noticeable, and they haven't given up easy touches when the ball does hit the ground.

    Our first quarter last week was really pathetic for a 'top' team.

    Ripping start from Brisbane, all over Melbourne. Beating them at the coalface, tackling and pressuring the ball carrier and getting the ball in deep with plenty of ground coverage.

    Basically everything we didn't do last week.

    They've been the best side for the last few weeks imo. Petracca signed his 7 yr deal doesn't look quite as hungry hey.
    Bont said he didn't want to do that so he stayed on his game. He is so wise.

    Fritsch has one of the most unlikable heads in the game.

    Perception is a funny thing, because of the nature of frees Melbourne is getting it’s feeling like they are getting the rub but they’re 11-17 behind for frees.
    Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

    It's not about the raw numbers, it's where and how.

    This is the real top of table clash. Brisbane look the goods. Their pressure is excellent. Really showing how poor we were last week. I hope we see a lot better intensity this week.

    It's clear #1. He hasn't earned that smirk.
