It was a tough day at Suncorp Stadium with the Dolphins proving too good in a second half fightback to win 28-26 against the Titans.
Here are the key three talking points from the clash:
Loss of control proves costly
Despite a commanding 26-6 lead at the break, the Titans conceded 22 unanswered points in the second half to be pipped at the post by the Dolphins at Suncorp.
Having lost all the momentum with the home side scoring two tries within 180 seconds between the 47th and 50th minutes; the game was tough to wrestle back with another two four-pointers scored in the final quarter of the game, including the match-winning moment in the 74th minute.
Magnificent Moe stands up in beaten side
Moeaki Fotuaika's outstanding form continued despite being part of the wrong end of the scoreline; finishing the game with 205 running metres and three tackle busts in the Queensland derby.
Winning the Corporal Cameron Baird VC MG Memorial Trophy for his efforts, the 23-year-old has more than rattled the Origin cage after a strong seven weeks to start the year.
AJ Brimson returns with immediate impact
A late inclusion to the side after recovering from a hamstring injury, AJ was quick to make his mark on the game, setting up the first try of the afternoon with a blistering line break before setting Chris Randall up.
Running for nearly 200 metres, Brimson had 3 linebreaks and 4 tackle breaks in the match and looked dangerous every time he had the ball in his hand.
