The Gold Coast have been dealt a massive blow on the eve of their NRL game against Canberra, with co-captain Kevin Proctor ruled out with a hamstring injury.
Proctor was injured in last Sunday’s 28-22 loss to the Warriors, however it’s understood it had a slow onset, and he was officially ruled out on Friday night.
At this stage Titans medical officials are unsure on a return date.
In a further blow to the injury-plagued Titans, he will be joined on the sidelines at Cbus Super Stadium by Joe Greenwood, who was expected to be Proctor’s starting replacement.
Greenwood has failed to overcome a concussion he sustained in last Sunday’s loss to the Warriors, with the club erring on the side of caution – it was his second head knock in a month.
“We decided that he does need a rest and that’s best for him,” Titans coach Neil Henry said of Greenwood.
“He has had a couple of head knocks within a short period so we felt it was best, and so did the medical team, that he has a week off with some modified training.”
