In a disappointing turn of events, the Titans have suffered a defeat at the hands of the Tigers, with ill discipline and poor ball control proving to be their downfall in a hard-fought 18-10 loss at Leichhardt Oval.
Despite taking a promising 10-6 lead into halftime, the Titans were unable to maintain their momentum in the second half, plagued by a series of costly errors that ultimately dashed their hopes of victory.
On a gloomy afternoon in Sydney, dedicated Titans supporters can find some silver linings in the performance.
Keano Kini, in just his 13th NRL appearance, etched his name into Titans history with a standout showing.
The young fullback racked up an impressive 318 run metres, surpassing the club's previous record held by Jayden Campbell.
With each game, Kini continues to elevate his game, showcasing his skills and agility as an emerging star of the team.
By halftime, he had already accumulated 174 run metres and proved to be a constant threat with ball in hand.
Kini's impact was not limited to his attacking prowess, as he also showcased his defensive capabilities, standing tall on the goal line when it mattered most.
Despite the disappointing result, the Titans can take solace in the promising performance of their rising star.
