Titans name injured duo for Broncos game

Gold Coast have recalled lock Ashley Harrison and centre Brad Takairangi for Friday night’s NRL derby against Brisbane.

Harrison (concussion) and Takairangi (hamstring) both missed Sunday’s 28-10 victory at Penrith but both have been named by coach John Cartwright in an extended 19-man squad.

Their replacements for the Panthers’ clash, Luke O’Dwyer and centre Steve Michaels, remain in the team as cover on an extended six-man bench.

“Just precautionary, we haven’t had a session as yet on the field,” Cartwright told reporters.

“We’ll train on Thursday and make some decisions then.”

Gold Coast go into the south-east Queensland derby at Skilled Park on the back of a three-match winning run while the Broncos have only won one match this season.

Titans: William Zillman, Kevin Gordon, Brad Takairangi, Jamal Idris, David Mead, Aidan Sezer, Albert Kelly, Luke Douglas, Matt Srama, Nate Myles, Greg Bird, Ben Ridge, Ashley Harrison. Interchange: David Taylor, Luke Bailey, Ryan James, Beau Falloon, Luke O’Dwyer, Steve Michaels (two to be omitted).
