Dave I - not quite!
The touchdown speed is the same, but no reverse is used on landing, so that the brakes do all the work and thus heat up to quite a temperature. As stated elsewhere on this thread, carbon brakes are more efficient at higher temperatures.
This SOP is not confined to QF, many airlines use it these days because the manufacturers recommend it. Some airlines have gone half way and use idle reverse only - in all cases though it's captain's discretion - if he thinks that particular landing merits the use of full reverse (eg short/wet runways)then he's free to do so.
