Preview:
The Titans turned up for a fight last week against the Sharks only for some sloppy second-half defence to let them down.
Gold Coast piled on three tries in the first half to put Cronulla on edge, but the Sharks fought back behind Aaron Gray and Paul Gallen to walk away with a 26-18 victory.
Canterbury was the opposite last week against the Knights, capping off a scoreless first half with two consolation tries in the second to lose 22-10. The Bulldogs have now managed just 20-points over their last two games, making this cellar dweller clash even more interesting as the wooden spoon race heats up.
These two sides met only once last year in a 32-10 Titans victory in Sydney. The Dogs have won two of their four trips to CBUS Stadium, and despite their position on the ladder, there are a few stats worth noting if you wish to back a Dogs upset.
Dean Pay’s side is well short of attacking options, but did you know the Dogs lead the league in set completion? They are also top of the competition in offloads and tackles, which spells bad news for a Titans side holding a mediocre 1-1 record as the home favourite over the last 12 months.
The Bulldogs do rank bottom of the league in points scored, but the addition of Kieran Foran back into the side last week certainly helped the rest of Canterbury’s halves. With a 6-5 record as the line underdog on the road, back the Dogs to get the job done.
