TV cameras captured Titans<\/a> coach Des Hasler<\/a> unleashing a trademark spray on his troops after they slumped to another heavy defeat on Saturday night.\ufeff<\/p>\n

The veteran mentor let rip on his players following a 30-14 loss to the Dolphins<\/a> on the Gold Coast, which marked their third loss from three games this season.<\/p>\n

The defeat marked 10 losses in a row for Hasler, who had lost his last seven games as Manly coach before copping the axe during the 2022 season<\/a>.<\/p>\n

"Des is going off his head at the moment because he realises they need a bit of \ufeffa sting in the arm to get a reaction," said Storm and Roosters great Cooper Cronk on the Fox League coverage.<\/p>\n

"We've seen it at every club," added rugby league Immortal and Fox League expert Mal Meninga.<\/p>\n

Hasler had a cooler head as he addressed the press alongside veteran five-eighth Kieran Foran, but the 63-year-old was still blunt.<\/p>\n

"I can line up the excuses [and come up with] a list this long, but what's the point?"\ufeff Hasler said.<\/p>\n

"You could probably copy and paste last week.<\/p>\n

"We're not putting two halves together, we're not executing well.<\/p>\n

"In that first half we had a great opportunity to put them away or put them to the sword. They had one in the sin bin and we came up with three dropped balls … We just can't build any pressure … We're not good enough yet, we're still growing.<\/p>\n

"Defensively we need to not put ourselves under so much pressure, and it's all to do with our attack … It's inexcusable that we're turning over possession."<\/p>\n

The Titans have this season lost to the Dragons 28-4\ufeff, the Bulldogs 32-0 and the Dolphins 30-14.<\/p>\n

They're now set for a tough road trip north to face the Cowboys in Townsville, before taking on the Raiders in Canberra in another difficult assignment away.<\/p>\n

They will then return home to meet the Sea Eagles, who Hasler coached in 303 games and steered to the 2011 title.<\/p>\n

The Gold Coast club was rocked by a season-ending injury suffered by captain and gun forward Tino Fa'asuamaleaui<\/a>, who ruptured an ACL in round three.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
