The Gold Coast Titans are set to welcome back Alofiana Khan-Pereira and David Fifita for their upcoming clash against the Cowboys in Townsville after the duo passed fitness tests.

Khan-Pereira, sidelined since Round 2 due to a hamstring strain, will return to the wing, while Fifita, who missed last week's match against the Raiders, is also cleared for play after completing Friday's captain's run without issues.

Titans coach Des Hasler noted, "The side remains unchanged ahead of game day," with Tony Francis and Jacob Alick-Wiencke on the extended bench.

Iszac Fa'asuamaleaui, Allan Fitzgibbon, and Josiah Pahulu were cut from the final squad, expected to play for the Ipswich Jets against Wynnum Manly on Saturday.

In a tribute to Anzac Round, Gold Coast will don a special jersey honoring Corporal Cameron Baird VC, MG, alongside highlighting the contributions of women in the defense force through Royal Australian Navy veteran Sue White and Royal Australian Air Force officer Matilda Busby.
