North Queensland barely made it a contest last week against Easts, completely folding around the ruck to concede an average 52m per set –\u00a0historically\u00a0awful numbers. They missed the\u00a0workrate\u00a0of Reed Mahoney off the\u00a0ball\u00a0but the Cowboys\u00a0can\u2019t\u00a0hope to address their defensive issues with one or two personnel changes.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We can only assume the Gold Coast will take a leaf out of Easts book and play through the middle here. The Titans continue to find points between the tram lines (42% – most in the NRL) and between Oliver Pascoe and Keano Kini\u00a0I like\u00a0that trend to prove true again.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Two teams with points in them and both coming off big losses; this feels like it could be a shoot-out and if it is,\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0North Queensland\u2019s to win.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
