This is a discussion forum, so points made should be politely accepted. The brakes in that incident were indeed the last priority. The answer that 131 was looking for is that the aircraft will be landing overweight and faster than normal. At Manchester there is a decent length runway, but the crew would want to check that they can taxi off the runway safely and not burst into flames after a successful landing. Cant remember whether the 75 has brake temp indicators but the 320 series usually has them.
