In Round 15, the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles faced a disappointing 28-8 defeat against the Titans at Cbus Super Stadium.
The match marked Reuben Garrick's 150th NRL game, and he celebrated with a try early on, scoring from dummy half during the team's second set of six.
However, the Titans responded quickly, with winger Allan Fitzgibbon receiving a Kieran Foran cutout pass to score just 13 minutes into the game, nudging the ball millimeters inside the touchline.
The Titans continued their momentum, scoring two tries from winger Alofiana Khan-Pereira within a four-minute span, extending their lead to 16-4.
Khan-Pereira's first try followed a clever play where centre Brian Kelly outmaneuvered Garrick, allowing Khan-Pereira to finish the move.
His second try showcased his individual skills as he darted from left to right, evading multiple defenders to score by the posts.
Despite Garrick's early contribution, the Sea Eagles struggled to maintain pressure, leading to a decisive victory for the Titans.
