Late mail: Campbell halves switch confirmed as forward joins bench

Josh Hannay has confirmed Jayden Campbell will start at halfback as the Titans take on the Cowboys at Queensland Country Bank Stadium. 

In a straight switch for Lachlan Ilias who moves to the interchange, the playmaking livewire joins AJ Brimson in the halves after missing the past fortnight with a minor hamstring strain.

The Titans coach has also brought Josh Patston onto the extended bench with Oliver Pascoe staying on the Gold Coast to play for Ipswich in the Hostplus Cup clash against the Brisbane Tigers.

The North Queensland derby is a special occasion for Chris Randall who notches up 100 NRL games - his 71st appearance for the Gold Coast after joining the club in 2023.

Kick-off is at 5.15pm (AEST); live on Fox League and Kayo Sports.
