Titans star Brimson to miss Storm clash

Gold Coast fullback AJ Brimson will miss Thursday's NRL match against Melbourne due to a jaw injury.

The Titans star copped a stray boot from Latrell Mitchell as the South Sydney fullback attempted to get up to play the ball in the second-half of last weekend's 36-6 loss to the Rabbitohs.

Scans have since revealed a hairline fracture with Brimson to see a surgeon on Tuesday to discuss his options.

The news is a major blow for the Titans, who are chasing a first finals appearance in five seasons.

They sit eighth on the ladder heading into the clash with the table-topping Storm, who are aiming for a record-equalling 19th consecutive win.

Brimson's injury will likely open the door for a return for youngster Jayden Campbell, who made his NRL debut against the Storm earlier this year in a narrow 20-14 loss on the Sunshine Coast.

"Jayden is fully fit and ready to go if selected," Titans high performance manager Klint Hoare said.

"He's recovered really well from an ankle injury that he had and has been back to full fitness for a few weeks now."
