Jojo Fifita is set to make his long-awaited return from injury as the Titans prepare to travel south and face the Storm in Melbourne on Saturday afternoon.
Joining Kieran Foran as timely additions given the loss of both Phil Sami and Jayden Campbell for the remainder of the season, the 20-year-old is set to comeback from an ankle injury he sustained in Round 22 that had him watching on from the sidelines the past month.
The two forced switches are the only changes made by coach Jim Lenihan heading into this weekend's clash, with the Titans hoping to gain confidence and back-up their early season victory against one of the competition heavyweights after toppling the Storm 38-34 at Cbus Super Stadium in Round 3.
Chris Randall is set to play in his 50th NRL game with hooking duties once again, only missing two games this season in his first year on the Gold Coast.
Kick-off is at 3pm on Saturday at AAMI Park, Melbourne.
