The Titans will be unchanged for their must-win clash against the Raiders as they head to Canberra for the last game of the regular season.

Having won the past three matches to set themselves up for a strong run to the playoffs, the Gold Coast will travel to the nation's capital with the intent to win and secure themselves a top four finish - the second NRLW finals series in three seasons.

Should the Titans lose, they will need to keep the margin under 11 points to qualify for finals - although if Brisbane lose to the Dragons on Saturday night, this cancels this scenario out.

In what will be Jess Elliston's 25th NRLW appearance - having played every game in her three seasons on the Gold Coast, Karyn Murphy has also included injured duo Emily Bass and Taliah Fuimaono in the extended squad, with the head coach giving the representative pair every opportunity to prove their fitness ahead of game day.

Kick-off is at 3.15pm on Sunday at GIO Stadium, Canberra.
