Late mail: Campbell to start, Brimson ruled out
UPDATE: AJ Brimson has been withdrawn from tonight's clash after failing to finish warm-up. He will be replaced by Aaron Schoupp.
Earlier...
Jayden Campbell will start Friday night's Round 23 clash at fullback, pushing AJ Brimson to the centres in a spine shake-up for the Titans against the Warriors at Cbus Super Stadium.
Overcoming a minor rib injury to back-up from last Sunday's clash, coach Jim Lenihan has opted to keep the electrifying young gun at the back and have Brimson play at right centre - a combination in which saw the Titans shut out North Queensland in the second half and come from behind to win 22-13 against the Cowboys.
The move shifts Aaron Schoupp to the bench in the utility back role that Campbell previously held; meanwhile, Chris Randall will once again start at hooker with Sam Verrills moving back to the pine in the only other change made ahead of kick-off.
The remainder of the 17 remains as per program with Jacob Alick to take on 18th man duties.
Winning four of the past five games against the Warriors including the past three at Cbus Super Stadium, the Titans will be aiming to keep their finals hopes alive with back-to-back wins, as well as retaining the Zae Wallace Shield that is on offer each time the two sides meet.
