THE TEAM NEWS

CANTERBURY BULLDOGS

  • Canterbury Bulldogs were lacklustre once again as a poor first half cost them any real chance of competing against New Zealand Warriors last week.
  • That defeat was their fifth in their last six outings and that run has resulted in changes in this game with the most significant seeing Josh Reynolds dropped to the bench in place of youngster Karl Oloapu who will come into the halves.

Starting 13: Perham, Kiraz, Averillo, Alamoti, Addo-Carr, Oloapu, Burton, King, Mahoney, Pangai Jnr., Waddell, Preston, Edwards – Interchanges: Reynolds, Okunbor, Hughes, Faitala-Mariner – Reserves: Wilson, Topine, Sutton, Flanagan, Morrin

Unavailable: Luke Thompson (Injured), Bailey Biondi-Odi (Injured), Viliame Kikau (Injured), Braidon Burns (Injured)

GOLD COAST TITANS

  • Gold Coast Titans failed to make it three straight wins as they succumbed to a heavy loss at the hands of Newcastle Knights in their latest contest.
  • The Titans went into that game full of confidence but their defensive efforts let them down and head coach Justin Holbrook will hope for a response here with Erin Clark back in the 17 after overcoming a finger injury.

Starting 13: Campbell, Khan-Pereira, Kelly, J. Fifita, Sami, Foran, Boyd, Fotuaika, Randall, T. Fa’asuamaleaui, D. Fifita, Stimson, Liu – Interchanges: Leeming, Clark, Haas, Vuna – Reserves: Schoupp, Mikaele, I. Fa’asuamaleaui, Kini, Maumalo

Unavailable: Beau Fermor (Injured), Sam Verrills (Injured), Jaimin Jolliffe (Injured), Toby Sexton (Injured), AJ Brimson (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

Canterbury Bulldogs are in a battle to avoid the wooden spoon based on how the opening third of the season has played out and they will be desperate to end their poor run of form as they take on Gold Coast Titans. The hosts have won just one of their last six and while the Titans were poor last week, they have the firepower to cause some problems here which should see them earn a fourth win in five matchups against the Dogs.
