Late Mail: Origin Contender Steps into the Spotlight in Coffs

In a move that could shake up the game like a hard tackle, Beau Fermor is set to take on the centres for the fourth time this season as Titans coach Des Hasler has given the green light ahead of the Sharks showdown in Coffs Harbour.

The versatile Queenslander, a dark horse for the Origin team, will switch places with Jacob Alick-Wiencke who has been called up late to cover for the injured Phil Sami, who strained his calf just days before the match.

Making his triumphant return since his injury in Round 9, Tanah Boyd will step back onto the field to fill the five-eighth spot left open by the absence of AJ Brimson, who is getting some extra time to recover from a groin issue.

The rest of the team remains unchanged, as the Titans aim to break their losing streak against Cronulla and secure their first victory on the Mid North Coast in their third appearance in Coffs Harbour.

All eyes will be on David Fifita as he makes his case for a spot in the Maroons squad, with Billy Slater likely keeping a close watch on him for Game III.

The dynamic backrower is featured in this week's TopSport Titanic special, just one try away from hitting a milestone of fifty tries.
