Titans: Phillip Sami (head knock) is a chance of returning to the backline after being named on an extended bench
"With Phil Sami he was named to play [last week] but just regressed [after a concussion]," Gold Coast high performance manager Klint Hoare said. "This week he will progress back into his protocols and he'll be flying ready to go for Souths."
Another seasoned winger in Anthony Don has been named to return from a hip injury so Jonus Pearson has dropped to the reserves.
Tino Fa'asuamaleaui's suspension for a shoulder charge brings Moeaki Fotuaika into the starting side and Sam McIntyre onto the bench.
