Locked in: Kiwi No. 9 joins squad for Warriors clash
New Zealand-born hooker Sean Mullany has been elevated to the starting side in the absence of Sam Verrills, who will miss Saturday's clash against the Warriors in Auckland due to the impending birth of his first child.
Staying in Australia for the important occasion, 25-year-old Mullany comes into the 17 for his third NRL appearance after making his debut earlier this season, and gets the chance to play his first game in his home country after playing all his junior footy in Auckland.
The remainder of the side remains unchanged with Ryan Foran and Alofiana Khan-Pereira also cut from the extended squad - the duo returning to Queensland to play Hostplus Cup.
The clash will be Kieran Foran's 50th Titans appearance - skippering the side in place of Tino Fa'asuamaleaui - whilst coach Des Hasler celebrates his 500th game as a NRL coach.
Kick-off is at 3pm (AEST) on Saturday at Go Media Stadium, Auckland.
