The match is scheduled to kick-off at 7:55pm (AEST) on Friday, September 22, and will take place at Melbourne’s AAMI Park.

Melbourne come into this match on the back of a relaxing week off, having narrowly defeated Parramatta in their qualifying final. The minor premiers enter this preliminary final as warm favourites.

Brisbane, on the other hand, lost their qualifying final to the Sydney Roosters by just two points but suffocated Penrith in their semi-final to put them back on the winner’s list.
