The winless Brisbane take on likewise winless Collingwood at the Gabba, in a grand final rematch like very few we have seen before. Join The Roar for live scores and commentary from 7:30pm (AEDT).

Prediction

Picking a winner between two teams horribly out of form is a mighty challenge, but the home ground advantage enjoyed by the Lions is one impossible to ignore.

Brisbane by 21 points.

That sook, Neale, should be playing soccer, he's such a good actor.

He apologized to Neale afterwards, so therewas something in it. Just as well Collingwood had the second quarter off,to give them the strength to play out the game...

Pendlebury should get $1500 for the light slap and Lachie a week for faking for a free kick.

At last. The umpires were kind to the Pies . Brilliant! Even if they were badly misguided for fifteen minutes of the third quarter and the first ten minutes of the first quarter.

Has Pendlebury ever been suspended? I remember a elbow high shot on Jamie Cripps, which knocked him flat in front of the umpire that didn't even get a whistle.

$1500 fine for a slap to the stomach. Lachie played it up.

Always a good win to beat Brisbane in Brisbane. Forward pressure was much improved and made defending much easier. Frampton growing in stature.
