The Titans have made a late switch ahead of kick-off with Chris Randall to start the Gold Coast's clash against the Roosters at Cbus Super Stadium.

The versatile utility will begin at prop from the opening whistle, pushing Isaac Liu to the bench in one of two changes made by interim head coach Jim Lenihan ahead of kick-off to the Round 21 contest. Iszac Fa'asuamaleaui has also moved onto the pine with Jacob Alick assuming 18th man duties.

AJ Brimson will captain the team in Tino Fa'asuamaleaui's absence with the Saturday afternoon showdown being David Fifita's 100th NRL appearance - first making his debut in Round 15, 2018 at the Broncos before beginning his journey with the Titans in 2021.

To celebrate the milestone, TopSport has got a mammoth Titanic special offering $10 odds for the Gold Coast forward to score a try in the first 60 minutes of the match and the Titans win his special clash at home. BET NOW!*

The Gold Coast will also join forces with Down Syndrome Queensland for their annual run-out with the team, now in its 10th year of partnership.

Kick-off is at 3pm, live on Fox League and Kayo Sports.
