Matches between the Titans and the Roosters have notoriously been tight encounters. In fact, the Roosters' 30-16 victory at Skilled Park in round 12 this year is the only time the margin has exceeded seven points. That match was an important milestone in the Chooks' season; they overturned a three-game losing sequence to the Titans and proved they could produce solid form away from home.

First Preliminary Final
However Gold Coast hit back in round 24 at Sydney Football Stadium, securing a 23-14 victory as they hit full stride ahead of the finals. But how Gold Coast handle a week off and the nerves of playing in their first preliminary final will be of chief concern to coach John Cartwright. The Roosters, meanwhile, are full of confidence after four-straight wins; but the prospect of playing a full-strength Titans side in Queensland means they may need to go up a level from their semi-final victory over injury-riddled Penrith.
While the Roosters' attack is receiving all the plaudits, it is important to note that the Chooks rank first in average tries conceded from round 21 to present. This stat is made even more remarkable by the fact they have conceded the most metres of any team in that time period. But if there a side to disrupt their dogged defence it is the Titans, who rank third in attack and have only lost once since round 21.
