JTS TItans 2024

The story of the 2024 Titans JTS Program has to be Javon Andrews. A couple of years ago Javon Andrews suffered a very serious neck injury that threatened his future (not just rugby league) but he did not let that define him and he has through sheer guts and determination rebounded to be a star of the future for the Titans, including training with the NRL squad in the opening weeks of the off-season.

He is a class player (and person) and I am not sure if he stays at five eight (ball playing lock maybe??) but he is impossible not to cheer for in 2025 and beyond.

Outstanding Mabel Park SHS and Brisbane Tigers Isaiah Te Pairi is an outstanding strike centre prospect and credit to the Titans for identifying his ability and getting him involved in their JTS program.

Is he contracted?

Looks like he’s doing work with a bunch of different clubs atm

Or is he not old enough yet?
