Best to give yourself at least 4 hours in between flights. Or better still, arrive one day early.
The biggest issue is the inbound Jetstar flight. LCC has less resources to deal with visits by Murphy. Most are great with the first flight of the day but by late night the Murphy visits will have taken their toll on the schedule.
