Late Mail: Unchanged side to tackle Dogs
Titans Coach Justin Holbrook has made no late changes to his side to tackle the Bulldogs today at Cbus Super Stadium.
It'll be the same squad named earlier in the week, with Jai Whitbread to sit on the extended bench as the HIA substitution.
Tino Fa'asuamaleaui moves to lock to replace the suspended Tyrone Peachey, with Moeaki Fotuaika moving into the starting pack.
Sam Stone will play his first game for 2021, with the backrower added to the bench.
After re-signing for another five seasons earlier in the week, AJ Brimson will be looking to carry his good form into another strong performance in front of home fans.
A win will see the Titans move back in to the NRL's top eight, while the Bulldogs will be chasing their second win of the season.

Round 11 Team News: Line-up confirmed for Titans clash
https://www.bulldogs.com.au/news/202...titans-jk1h23/
The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs have made several changes to their side for Saturday's clash with the Titans in the Gold Coast (3:00PM AEST), with promising young centre Aaron Schoupp to make his debut.
The exciting 19 year old joined the club from the Illawarra Steelers at the end of 2019 and is a former Australian U15 and NSW U16 centre. Having come through the Illawarra Sports High School program, Schoupp is a strong ball carrier and potential goal kicking option, who has featured in club trial matches over the past two seasons.
Coach Trent Barrett has opted to start Adam Elliott at lock against the Titans, Renouf Atoni reverting to the interchange bench.
Watson Heleta has been omitted an hour before kick-off, with Ofahiki Ogden named as the 18th man. Heleta was a late inclusion to the squad earlier in the week after Tui Katoa was ruled out with concussion.
Kyle Flanagan and Joe Stimson were also omitted from the 21-man squad on Friday.

Holbrook insists Titans clash with Dogs is far from ‘do or die’
http://www.couriermail.com.au
TITANS coach Justin Holbrook insists he isn’t worried about the Gold Coast’s finals hopes slipping away ahead of today’s crucial clash against the battling Bulldogs.
The Titans will host last-placed Canterbury at Cbus Super Stadium in what shapes as a must-win match if the Gold Coast want to play finals in 2021.
After a promising start to the season, the Titans have lost four of their past five games and become defensive turnstiles in the process. They have conceded 188 points in that period at an average of 37.6 per game.
To put that in context, the unbeaten Penrith Panthers have conceded an average of 7.2 points per game this year.
The Titans were thumped 48-12 at Magic Round by Penrith last weekend, after playing the entire second half with 12 men following Herman Ese’ese’s send-off.
Their form at home has been encouraging this year, with two wins and one loss, and Holbrook said the Titans were working to improve their defence. “We’re trying to do it every week,” Holbrook (pictured) said. “With how fast the game is getting and the amount of tackles you can face without a rest, it’s getting difficult. “We’ve got to keep working at it. That will always be the focus.” Titans co-captain Kevin Proctor will play despite a niggling knee injury but five-eighth Ash Taylor has been rested again as he overcomes a hip problem. Backrower David Fifita will miss the game after the club unsuccessfully challenged a high tackle charge at the judiciary last week, resulting in a two-match ban. Fifita has scored eight tries in three games at Cbus this season.
The Titans have slipped to 10th on the ladder with a 4-6 record after 10 rounds, but the congested competition means they still have a redhot crack of playing finals for the first time since 2016. Holbrook said that wasn’t the team’s focus though.
“I don’t want to focus on that, we’re not even halfway through (the season),” he said.
“These are the games we want to win, we know that, they are very important.”

Fox league guys are spot on talking about Tanah and ash, you mix ash's skills with tanahs effort and energy and you get an elite half, but you can teach skills you can't teach effort that's why Tanah should stay at 6 over ash hope he has a good game and start to take about more control so we don't just have to see fogarty kicking to don every set
I’ll take that ... good start and two 50/50 calls going our way too.

That was excellent from Tanah
Both times he’s got it back

Boyd's defence leaves a lot to be desired.

This game is aids.
We look more focused on not losing than winning

2020 Brimmo would’ve gone the full way
That is so on-brand for Don
Good execution from Marsters & Boyd, class play from Kelly.
I love our attack...I just wish we were this good in defence.
