Preview:
Gold Coast is on the board this season, holding on for a 30-24 win against the Panthers last Friday night. They now have back-to-back home games and host Newcastle on Sunday afternoon. The Knights are on a four game losing streak and struggling at home, so perhaps a road trip will galvanise the squad in what is presenting as a must-win if they want to stay in touch with the top 8. The big team news for the Titans is that AJ Brimson and Jarrod Wallace will miss through injury and suspension respectively, while Ash Taylor is named but in doubt after coming off in the first half against the Panthers. Injury has forced one change for Nathan Brown’s Knights, who aren’t getting enough out of their forward pack, with halves Mitchell Pearce and Mason Lino also underperforming. The Wolf thinks this is the week the Knights have to stand up and show something. Their attack has been stale and one-dimensional and this game is one where they’ll have an opportunity to put up some points. The Titans have one of the worst attacks and defences in the competition, with the Knights attack struggling at just over 13 points a game through five matches. They should see a sharp rise in that number on Sunday in sunny conditions up north, so its the Knights’ to lose.
