Brisbane Broncos vs Gold Coast Titans Preview
The Broncos and the Titans will meet for the second time in just over a month in a game Justin Holbrook’s side really needs to have.
Now riding a two-game losing streak, the Titans are in real danger of not only slipping out of the eight, but also falling well short of the top four expectations many set for them at the start of the year.
Fortunately, a winnable game against the Broncos couldn’t have come at a better time.
The Titans withstood a late comeback from the Broncos to win by 12 when these sides met back in Round 2, although it’s fair to say Holbrook will be asking for a renewed sense of urgency this time around.
If the Titans can start on time though, they should be winning this comfortably.
The Broncos have been dealt another injury blow with captain Alex Glenn ruled out for the next few weeks with a calf injury. The skipper joins Kotoni Staggs and Alex Glenn on the sidelines.
David Fifita also dominated Brisbane last time they met scoring a double on either side of half-time.
The Broncos should appreciate getting back to their home turf, but after struggling big time for possession last week in the blowout loss to the Eels, it’s hard to see Brisbane keeping up with this talented Gold Coast outfit.
