In a significant update for Round 10, the Gold Coast Titans will see the return of Jayden Campbell, who rejoins the primary halves pairing for their Friday night clash against the Newcastle Knights.

Campbell's recovery from an ankle injury leads to two lineup changes made by coach Des Hasler, with Tom Weaver ruled out due to HIA protocols.

Additionally, Jojo Fifita returns to the wing after missing last Sunday's match due to a minor arm infection.

The rest of the team remains the same from the previous Magic Round, with standout player David Fifita not listed in the 22-man squad as he seeks further medical advice for a persistent ankle issue.

The Titans previously triumphed over the Knights, defeating them 26-6 earlier this season, and now aim for another victory in Newcastle.

This matchup is particularly noteworthy for two key Titans players: Captain Tino Fa'asuamaleaui is set to achieve his 100th NRL appearance, having started his professional journey with the Storm in 2019.

Meanwhile, long-serving prop Moeaki Fotuaika will take the field for his 150th game, placing him third in all-time caps for the Titans, behind Mark Minichiello (173) and Will Zillman (156).

Kick-off is scheduled for 6 PM at McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle.
