Josh Hannay has unveiled his full-strength squad to face the Melbourne Storm on Saturday night at Sunshine Coast Stadium.

Reiterating his confirmed spine of Keano Kini, AJ Brimson, Jayden Campbell and Sam Verrills; the Titans coach has given the nod to new recruits Max Feagai and Siale Faeamani in the backline alongside Phil Sami and Jojo Fifita, whilst Jensen Taumoepeau and Jaylan De Groot form part of the extended interchange after their strong showings against the Dolphins.

Indigenous All Star Josh Patston gets first crack in the back-row after representing his heritage last Sunday; meanwhile, Tino Fa'asuamaleaui moves to prop and Chris Randall starts at lock after being confirmed as a middle man this season.

A number of Gold Coast stars will be out to impress Hannay with spots on the line for the season opener, especially with the new six-man bench announced by the NRL.

Kick-off is at 7.10pm (AEST) on Saturday at Sunshine Coast Stadium.
