Roberts to lead Titans' charge

Preston Campbell Medal winner Tyrone Roberts has been rewarded with the Gold Coast captaincy for the Titans’ first pre‑season trial against North Queensland at Sunshine Coast Stadium on Saturday.

Titans coach Garth Brennan today announced a 26‑man squad for the Cowboys clash, with a number of younger squad members given an opportunity to impress in the club’s first official outing for 2019.

Roberts could not be in better form heading into his first game in Titans colours since 2017, having claimed the coveted Preston Campbell Medal for his man‑of‑the‑match performance for the Indigenous All-Stars in their 34‑14 victory over the Maori All-Stars last weekend in Melbourne.

In this week’s NRL competition, the Titans will take on the Wests Tigers at 7.30pm this Saturday.
