Andrew Johns and Brad Fittler are predicting a wild shootout when the Titans host the Wests Tigers<\/a> to launch round 15, with dynamic fullback AJ Brimson back in the line-up for the home team and both sides building a reputation for lethal attack but leaky defence.<\/p>\n

Discussing the match for Wide World of Sports Freddy and the Eighth's Tips<\/em><\/a>, Johns said it "could be a 48-46\ufeff" scoreline.<\/p>\n

"It'll be an entertaining game, this'll be a good game, there \ufeffwon't be much defence," added Johns.<\/p>\n

Both Johns and Fittler were leaning towards the Titans<\/a>, partly due to the return of Brimson\ufeff, who has missed the last four matches with a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n

\"AJ<\/p>\n

While Brimson will add to the side's attack, the lethal left edge combinat\ufeffion of Kieran Foran and David Fifita<\/a> will be absent, with Foran nursing a foot injury and Fifita experiencing delayed concussion symptoms.<\/p>\n

Although those absences will take away some of the Titans' firepower, it's the other side of the ball that will undoubtedly be a huge focus for under pressure coach Justin Holbrook, with his side leaking 335 points so far this season at the alarming average of almost 28 per game.<\/p>\n

Despite sitting four points behind them on the ladder, the Tigers have been significantly more stingy, giving up 264 points at an average of 22 points per game.<\/p>\n

\"Tigers<\/p>\n

Holbrook is out of contract at the end of next season, making every match for the rest of this season a potential future clincher.<\/p>\n

Fittler, who knows what it's like to sit on the coaching hot seat acknowledged that Holbrook would be feeling the pressure.<\/p>\n

"He hasn't signed yet for [after] next year, Justin Holbrook, so they need to win for their coach," Fittler said.\ufeff<\/p>\n
