The lustre is rapidly disappearing from Gold Coast s premiership credentials thanks to a collapse in the team s defensive resolve in recent weeks.
The Titans have conceded a staggering 188 points in their past five outings, sending their points differential into negative territory and the club out of the top eight.
A match against one of the NRL s battlers should be just the pick-me-up the team needs but the roller-coaster form line and absence of star forward David Fifita (suspended) dictate that nothing be taken for granted. And with dates against the Storm and Roosters looming this is a win the Titans just have to have.

Subscriber only Broncos coach Kevin Walters is considering another scrumbase reshuffle with Karmichael Hunt and Albert Kelly putting pressure on besieged playmaker Anthony Milford for Saturday s clash against the Roosters. Hunt was set to be called up for his first NRL game in 12 years this week, only to suffer a minor knee injury playing for Souths Logan in the Intrust Super Cup on Sunday. Walters is awaiting results of scans to determine whether to pitchfork Hunt into the halves at the expense of Milford for the Roosters showdown at the SCG.
