Fotuaika to join Fa'asuamaleaui as Titans co-captains

Experienced enforcer Moeaki Fotuaika will join Tino Fa’asuamaleaui in leading the Titans together as co-captains for the remainder of the 2026 season.

One of the club's most respected figures and recently achieving the honour of becoming Gold Coast’s most-capped player in his 174th appearance, Fotuaika's elevation recognises his outstanding leadership, professionalism and influence within the playing group.

Titans coach Josh Hannay said Fotuaika's appointment alongside Fa’asuamaleaui was a natural progression for a player who is highly regarded among his peers.

"Moe has earned enormous respect throughout our club with the way he carries himself every day," Hannay said.

"In consultation with Tino, he was clear that he welcomed Moe’s ascension to co-captain – so much so that he wanted to deliver the news to Moe himself.

"They have both been pillars of this organisation and Tino couldn’t be happier to share the leadership responsibilities with his running mate.”
