You know, the outs are significant for Melbourne.
Salem goes out.
Melksham goes out.
He's been so important for them in the front part of the ground.
You know, Zorko out's a big out for Brisbane, but we know they can cover it.
Answorth is a player who's improved significantly.
So they play the two rucks, Melbourne.
That's probably as much to give Gorney a bit of a spell.
And, you know, he only has to play in the ruck for 70% of the game versus 95% of the game.
Look, if Brisbane can get to fourth gear, they'll win the game.
But Melbourne are an interesting team this year.
They're just going to be an absolute banana peel each and every time they play, I reckon.
Yeah, I think there's a real... Well, it's the intensity.
And often it's probably the pressure or the level of expectation on the team that's better.
So from Fremantle's perspective, because they're the team expected to win and win well, the expectation is there.
And maybe with some of that comes some anxiety.
From West Coast's perspective, it's a derby.
So you've got to bring your best and you've got to find a way to be at 101% of your maximum.
But the expectation is not on them.
So they can kind of play free in a way, knowing that if they can pick a game off like this, then they'll be the talk of the town for 10 weeks until we see the next one.
