AJ Brimson shifts gears for milestone game

LeagueNews.co | Cooper McEnroe

In his milestone 100th NRL game this weekend, AJ Brimson finds himself in a rather unfamiliar role, as he takes on the centres for the Gold Coast Titans.

The versatile player started his career as a halfback in 2018 but gradually made his mark as the club's primary fullback.

However, under new coach Des Hasler, Brimson will begin the season in the centres once again, marking only the second time he has played in that position.

While he may prefer being in the spine, Brimson's positional change allows Hasler to incorporate him, Jayden Campbell, and Kieran Foran in the same line-up.

This week, Keano Kini will wear the coveted number one jersey, but it will eventually make its way back to Campbell once he has fully recovered from his injury.
