Titans face Raiders in Round 9; Brimson returns, while Hosking and Martin are out. Both teams seek revival from disappointing starts.
Two sides with much loftier ambitions than their current 13th and 14th positions will shape up in Round 9 in a clash that will signal the start of a revival for either the Titans or Raiders.
After claiming last year's minor premiership the Raiders have managed just three wins across the opening eight rounds while the Titans have won just two games under new coach Josh Hannay.
The trek to Cbus Super Stadium will hold few fears for the Green Machine as they boast an 8-7 record in matches at the venue since 2008, including a 30-20 win in Round 7 last year.
