THE TEAM NEWS

GOLD COAST TITANS

  • Gold Coast Titans will be eager to avoid a fifth consecutive loss to end the campaign after going down to Melbourne Storm last week.
  • The Titans will fancy their chances of getting back to winning ways as they host Canterbury Bulldogs, especially as they have prop Moeaki Fotuaika available after he missed the Storm game due to personal reasons.

Starting 13: 1. AJ Brimson 2. Alofiana Khan-Pereira 3. Brian Kelly 4. Aaron Schoupp 5. Jojo Fifita 6. Kieran Foran 7. Thomas Weaver 8. Moeaki Fotuaika 9. Chris Randall 10. Jaimin Jolliffe 11. David Fifita 12. Klese Haas 13. Tino Fa'asuamaleaui Bench: 14. Keano Kini 15. Kruise Leeming 16. Joe Stimson 17. Jacob Alick Reserves: 18. Iszac Fa'asumaleaui 19. Jo Vuna 20. Tony Francis 21. Josiah Pahulu 22. Ken Maumalo

CANTERBURY BULLDOGS

  • Canterbury Bulldogs started the season with plenty of hope under new head coach Cameron Ciraldo but it has not panned out as hoped and they look set to finish in 15th spot on the ladder.
  • They come into this game with three successive losses to their name after going down to Manly Sea Eagles last week and they have opted to leave the retiring Tevita Pangai Jr. out of their side for this final contest of the year.

Starting 13: 1. Hayze Perham 2. Blake Wilson 3. Jake Averillo 4. Paul Alamoti 5. Josh Addo-Carr 6. Matt Burton 7. Toby Sexton 8. Luke Thompson 9. Reed Mahoney 10. Liam Knight 11. Viliame Kikau 12. Corey Waddell 13. Max King Bench: 14. Kyle Flanagan 15. Samuel Hughes 16. Kurtis Morrin 17. Jayden Okunbor Reserves: 19. Jeral Skelton 20. Bailey Biondi-odo 21. Jayden Tanner 22. Ryan Sutton 23. Raymond Faitala-Mariner

THE PREDICTION

Gold Coast Titans will welcome a new head coach next year and they will aim to give Des Hasler something to build on in this final game of the season. The Titans have struggled for consistency this year and that is also the case of Canterbury Bulldogs. The pair are both without a win in their last three matches while the wait for a success is a little longer for the Titans but they can capitalise on some dreadful recent efforts of the Bulldogs and can end the season with a win.
