Siale Faeamani is set to make his return to first grade this weekend after being sidelined for over three months.
The 22-year-old has been selected for Gold Coast's match against South Sydney on Saturday, as Jojo Fifita is out due to a hip pointer injury.
Faeamani will take on a centre position for the 3pm game at Cbus Super Stadium, marking his first appearance in the NRL since Round 9.
This chance is well-deserved for the young outside back, who showed promise early in his debut NRL season before an MCL injury against the Raiders ended his run.
He made a strong impression in Round 1 against the Sharks, playing in eight matches for the Titans, scoring four tries, and registering a try assist, three line breaks, and three tackle breaks.
His MCL injury kept him away for three to four weeks, but returning to the top team took longer than anticipated.
After successfully working his way back with the Tweed Seagulls, he has now earned this recall to the Titans' main squad.
Faeamani's promotion is the sole adjustment to the Gold Coast lineup, with Matt Feagai also moving up to the extended bench due to Fifita's exit.
