NEDS Late Mail: Peachey to start against Cowboys

The Gold Coast Titans will line up with the same 17 named earlier in the week for today's XXXX Derby against the North Queensland Cowboys in Townsville.

Titans Coach Justin Holbrook has made some shuffles to his squad however, with Tyrone Peachey to start the game at lock.

The re-shuffle sees Tino Fa'asuamaleaui move into the front row, with Moeaki Fotuaika to drop back to the interchange bench.

There's just one new face from the Titans side that defeated the Broncos in round two, with Tanah Boyd replacing the injured Ash Taylor at five-eighth.

With Jason Taumalolo missing for the home side, Fa’asuamaleaui and Jarrod Wallace will be trying to give the Titans the ascendancy through the middle from the start of the match, with a power packed Titans bench featuring Fotuaika, Jaimin Jolliffe and Sam Lisone to provide further muscle as the game wears on.

After scoring his first NRL try in his last game, Erin Clark will again be the spark off the bench for the Titans with Beau Fermor again 18th man.
