Late mail: Titans unchanged as Pascoe takes on new role against Roosters

Titans coach Josh Hannay has confirmed no changes to his final team with Oliver Pascoe to get his first opportunity to start against the Roosters in Gosford.

Anointed dummy-half duties from the opening whistle in his sixth NRL appearance, the Gold Coast coach is expecting the 2025 Hostplus Cup player of the year to be a running threat in the No. 9 jersey, having provided a spark of energy from the pine previously.

Cooper Bai joins Pascoe in the starting side for his second opportunity after getting the chance to begin at lock in New Zealand three weeks ago, pushing Chris Randall to the edge and Arama Hau to the bench in the forward pack shuffle.

The Titans will celebrate two debutants with Jensen Taumoepeau (#209) and Zane Harrison (#210) running out for their maiden NRL appearances as the visitors aim to notch up back-to-back victories against the Roosters, coming into the clash as last start winners when previously facing the tri-colours.

Kick-off is at 6pm; live on Fox League and Kayo Sports.
