TITANS coach Garth Brennan has challenged tearaway forward Moeaki Fotuaika to embrace the challenge against North Queensland’s all-star pack tonight.
Fotuaika will start in the front row when the Titans play their first pre-season trial against the Cowboys at Sunshine Coast Stadium.
Cowboys coach Paul Green will roll out Test trio Matt Scott, Jordan McLean and Jason Taumalolo in the trial, giving the understrength Titans a solid test.
“The young guys are excited to come up against the likes of Matt Scott, who has been the best front-rower in the game for a while,” Brennan said.
Titans stars Ash Taylor (shoulder) and Ryan James (knee) are not fit to play tonight, while Brennan has rested Jarrod Wallace, Shannon Boyd, Kevin Proctor, Nathan Peats and Michael Gordon.
The Titans will play their final trial against the Broncos at Robina’s Cbus Super Stadium next Saturday.
