Locked in: Jolliffe good to go; Fifita ruled out of Dolphins derby
Enforcer Jaimin Jolliffe has been given the green light to return from a calf strain but Jojo Fifita will miss this Saturday's Sunshine Showdown against the Dolphins due to a corked thigh.
Unable to overcome the injury this week ahead of the clash on the Gold Coast, Jacob Alick-Wiencke has been brought into the side at centre, pushing Phil Sami to the wing to replace the flyer.
The remainder of the team remains as per program with Fifita, Tukimihia Simpkins and Josiah Pahulu cut from the extended squad - the two forwards set to feature in this weekend's round of the Hostplus Cup.
Gold Coast will be aiming to notch up three wins in a row with back-to-back victories against the Dolphins, and at Cbus Super Stadium after defeating the Knights in the club's home opener a fortnight ago.
This Saturday's clash will also form part of Multicultural Round in the NRL, with players to wear traditional dress to the game and the Titans featuring a number of multicultural activations to celebrate the 65 cultures that make up the greatest game of all.
Kick-off is at 4.30pm AEST on Saturday at Cbus Super Stadium, Gold Coast.
