Late mail: Hannay confirms Christensen's debut against Eels

Adam Christensen's NRL dream will come true against the Eels with the edge forward to make his debut during Sunday's showdown in Sydney.

Titans coach Josh Hannay has confirmed the hard-working 23-year-old will play a role off the bench when they face Parramatta, following an engine room reshuffle after Klese Haas' injury - Kurtis Morrin named to start in his palce.

Joining Gold Coast over the off-season after helping the Burleigh Bears win the Hostplus Cup grand final last year, the Runaway Bay Seagulls junior will become Titan #208 when he gets his opportunity.

The remainder of the side remains as per program as the Titans aim to break their Sydney hoodoo against the Eels, having not beaten Parramatta at their home since Round 6, 2015.

Kick-off is at 2pm; live on Fox League and Kayo Sports.
