Unfortunately, neither of them seems to be an 80 minute player. I have mentioned Matt Parcell a few times in the past and I maintain that we should still be trying to bring him back from England.

I miss Nathan Friend so much.
But carrying two hookers is a fine Titans tradition!
PUT EM TO THE SWORD! SHOW SOME STEEL!

Titans get their Mo-jo back
https://www.nrl.com/
Club champion Moeaki Fotuaika will return for the Gold Coast as coach Justin Holbrook warned his team needed a collective approach to fix their poor start when they face leading premiership contenders Parramatta on Sunday.
Fotuaika missed last week's season-opening loss to Canberra due to off-season knee and wrist surgery but has trained strongly this week and will play off the bench as the Titans look to get their 2020 firing with their first home game at Cbus Super Stadium.
The powerful front-rower was the Titans' best player in 2019, averaging 133 metres and 50 post-contact metres per game, to be crowned their Paul Broughton Medallist. His return will add some grunt to a forward pack that will need to be at its best in the face of a versatile Eels team.
"Mo is back this week which is great," Holbrook said.
"He is raring to go and has had a couple of really good weeks at training now so he will be a great addition for us."
Holbrook expects a big turnaround in attitude from his team this week against the Eels. They trailed 18-0 by half-time in the loss to the Raiders and were behind by the same deficit in their last trial game against the Broncos before storming to victory.
The coach is prepared to put last Saturday's sleepy start down to a poor road trip to Canberra, but says there will be no excuses for being slow out of the blocks at home.
"We said after the game we didn't start the game well and that is definitely something we need to improve on," Holbrook said.
"The preparation is different because we're not travelling. I think we didn't handle that well as a group last week, that is what I put it down to.
"In terms of this week we're at home, it's a different scenario again for us and we will be ready to go.
"I just thought collectively early in the game we were flat and that was the most disappointing thing, if we fix that up it will be okay.
"For us it's just about being proud of the way we play. I think we let ourselves down last week and from what I've seen all preseason, the trials and the Nines, that is not what we displayed last week and we have a chance tomorrow to do that."

I have a horrible feeling we will get well and truly beaten today.
Need to see something to convince me Holbrook has got these guys into a First Grade unit again.
A good start is key
Happy to have Mo back. Hope he sets the level again for others to strive for.
Proctor out due to hamstring injury.
OK I'm tuned in. Yes I think we can beat them.

Well I'm glad Sami at least took Moses to the sideline.

Mal shown in the stands happy and laughing away after Mitch Moses scores a length of the field try against us. Classic.

Ok, I’ve seen enough of Rein starting. Back to Peats please. We need his defense in the opening 20.
LOL what a basket case of a team once again it looks like men against kids
