Titans v Sea Eagles: Campbell in doubt; Saab, Lodge in frame

The Sea Eagles head north in Round 7 to take on former long-time coach Des Hasler for the first time since he left the club at the end of 2022.

Hasler suffered the latest, and probably most brutal, blow of his short tenure in charge of the Titans last week by way of a golden point loss to the Raiders, which resigned his side to a 0-5 start.

Manly suffered heartbreak of their own in Round 6 but still left with a point for their efforts, after being run down late by the Warriors and taken to gold point where a winner still couldn't be found after 10 minutes of additional play.

While they picked up three more injury concerns in that game, coach Anthony Seibold also confirmed that frontline players Reuben Garrick, Jason Saab, Matt Lodge and Nathan Brown are all set to return in Round 7. 

The Titans have won both of their two most recent meetings with the Sea Eagles, while in 14 games coaching against Manly to date (all while he was in charge of the Bulldogs) Hasler has won 10 times.
