Explosive centre Brian Kelly is back in the Titans squad to take on the Newcastle Knights on Friday night, as the Gold Coast side look to make it five-straight wins to finish the season.

Kelly returns from an ankle injury to bolster the Titans backline, with his replacement at centre Treymain Spry to move to the wing.

Corey Thompson drops to an extended bench, with the winger missing the second half of the Titans last start win over Manly with lower back/hamstring tightness.

Mitch Rein will line up at hooker after taking an early plea for a 'dangerous throw' charge. Rein also left the field in Round 19 with a knock to the eye, but should be clear to return for the final round clash.

Jai Arrow is expected to recover from a groin complaint and will come off the bench in his final game for the Club.

Darius Farmer, Phillip Sami and Nathan Peats join Thompson on an extended bench.

The Titans sit ninth on the NRL ladder and will look to equal the Club record of five-straight wins when they host the Newcastle Knights at Cbus Super Stadium on Friday night.
