Gold Coast halfback Toby Sexton was happy with the Titans’  performance after playing a role in the 26-all draw in Saturday night’s pre-season trial at Cbus Super Stadium. 

The 20-year-old started the game in the halfback role and made a strong contribution scoring one try and kicking two goals.

After the game, the former Seagull told titans.com.au that the entire squad will be better for the run. 

“It was good to get out there and get the cobwebs off,” he said. 

“Our scramble D (defence) was good and we came up with some good plays for a couple of our tries. 

“I thought the young guys were outstanding at the back end of the game and we’ll take plenty of positives out of it.”

Sexton skippered the side in the opening trial of the year and was a little critical of his own game. 

“I just needed to try and stay patient (out there). I maybe overplayed my hand at times but there is plenty to take out of it and we’re looking forward to next week. 

“I think we’ll have a near full strength side out there.”

Tweed’s own Treymain Spry (two tries) and Jayden de Groot (one try) made solid contributions, whilst Jayden Campbell combined well with Sexton in what will be one of the most exciting partnerships to watch throughout 2022. 

The Titans will travel north next Saturday to take on the New Zealand Warriors at Moreton Daily Stadium in Redcliffe, where the Warriors will call home until travel restrictions are lifted.
