The Titans and the visiting Eels come in to this crucial round 20 match in similar circumstances. Both clubs are on 20 points but find themselves outside the top eight after a promising start to the season, and both have been hit hard with injuries. Gold Coast are coming off a good win against the Knights while Parramatta are trying to put a halt to their four match losing streak. The winner of this match will keep its finals hopes alive while the loser may have to start making plans for next year. In team changes Tom Kingston drops off the Titans’ extended bench and for the Eels Tonga, Toutai and Terepo are out and replaced by Hopoate, Sio and Mannah. Junior Paulo will start from the bench.
