The Gold Coast Titans are full of optimism after AJ Brimson and Kieran Foran's scan results have revealed the playmaking pair anticipate to return earlier than first expected.
Brimson suffered a Grade 2 hamstring strain which will keep the Titans No. 1 on the sidelines for up to four weeks; meanwhile, Foran is hoping for a return in around three weeks' times after leaving the field with a Grade 2 soleus (calf) strain.
The only other injury concern across the weekend saw Keano Kini cop a bump to his hip in Burleigh's Round 3 win at the weekend, although the young gun is pushing to play for the Bears in this weekend's Rivalry Round clash against Tweed.
