It's official. David Fifita is locked and loaded for Friday night.
The damaging forward has been given the thumbs up by Gold Coast medicos for the Titans' Round 16 bout against the Knights in Newcastle, ending a three-game hiatus due to a Grade 2 MCL knee sprain.
Set to begin the clash on the bench, the 22-year-old will provide plenty of attacking spark when coach Justin Holbrook injects the electrifying edge forward into the game, up against the likes of Tyson Frizell and Mitch Barnett.
Just under 24 hours out from kick-off, the Titans are set to remain unchanged intending to start 1-17, with Corey Thompson and Herman Ese'ese travelling with the squad as reserves in case of any late injuries.
