If Canberra's front row come out and play like they did this week, it will be another breezy night. We will just trample over them.
 
We lost in round 6 of 1998 to Manly.

So anyone know the last time we have gone 6-0 to start the season.

I'll guess 1997, but I haven't checked yet

Yep
 
Hetherington 80 minutes two weeks in a row, very busy and a good try chasing through after playing it and it rebounded a bit- good kick from Mozer. Just your typical Hetherington performance, busy and on the ball. He could easily come back in next week against the Raiders.

You got it.

Brisbane went 7-0 until they lost to the Panthers in Round 8.

The interesting thing about that Round 6 1998 game was that the two teams had met in Round 1. Bill Harrigan was criticised for sending 2 players off for Manly in a fiery second half. Steve Clark was under all sorts of pressure from the media and Manly went onto win 28-4 off the back of a 13-4 penalty count.

Brisbane actually won their opening 8 games in 1996, but they forfeited their Round 1 clash against the Warriors, so it doesn't count.
 
I guess there's a slight chance Haas might cop a fine for his love slap but that'll be it.
