Easy win for us after that Tigers game. No doubt
If Sami isn't playing Gutherson going to target me
Parra are lookin scary ahead of next week.
Hope parra peaked tonight as they were brilliant right across the park
Not the right week but reading that Tom Trbojevic might be out for 1-3 weeks with a knee injury. Hopefully that's the case when we play them next week
If Campbell is fit who we picking at fullback? I’m thinking give him one more week to rest against the Eels who are red hot and bring him back after that. I didn’t see enough from Isaako to justify his spot
Does Marsters also have Covid? Didn't even make the 24 and would've thought he would be be the natural replacement for Kelly
Really want to see Paul Turner in the 14.
Glad to see F troop back together.
Sami in the centres? Been tried before hasn't it? Without success.
I'd back a Fermor switch to centre.
Titans v Eels: Triple boost for Titans; Lane returns
https://www.nrl.com/news/2022/04/05/...-lane-returns/
An early-season rematch hands the Titans a chance for revenge for their round one loss to the Eels in what was a high-scoring shootout at CommBank Stadium.
That topsy-turvy game saw the Eels race out to a 10-0 lead inside 10 minutes and a total of 10 tries scored in the first 41 minutes of the match - five to each team - then none thereafter, with the Eels holding on to a 32-28 win largely thanks to three penalty goals.
The team's fortunes have diverged a little since with the Eels' impressive past fortnight lifting them to third on the ladder and the Titans needing a last-gasp miracle try against the struggling Wests Tigers last week to earn a second win of the season that has them sitting in ninth.
Team news
Titans: A few changes for the home side. Beau Fermor, Phil Sami and Isaac Liu have been named to return to the starting side after they were ruled out following COVID-19 protocols last week. Sami switches to the centres in place of Brian Kelly. Young gun Jayden Campbell will be given another week off to nurse a rib injury with Jamayne Isaako to start again at fullback. Herman Ese’ese (COVID-19) is among the reserves.
Eels: Shaun Lane returns after missing last week's win over the Dragons with Ryan Matterson shifting back to the bench. Mitch Rein also comes into the 17 with Bryce Cartwright moving to 18th player. Marata Niukore and Jakob Arthur are among those in the reserves.

Key match-up
AJ Brimson v Dylan Brown: 23-year-old Maroons Origin utility AJ Brimson has made the switch to the halves this year and is making a good fist of it, including touching down for last week's match-winner. Meanwhile at the Eels, 21-year-old playmaker Dylan Brown is threatening to turn this into his true breakout season after a stunning opening month that has him right in the conversation for NRL's form player.
Stat attack
The Eels have put up some impressive numbers the Titans will need to overcome. The blue-and-golds currently boast an NRL-best average possession rate of 54% and average completion rate of 83%. The Titans sit 14th for possession with 48% and 13th for completions at 72%.
