After months of searching, the Gold Coast Titans have finally found the man they believe will be able to help lead the club’s revival alongside head coach Justin Holbrook next year.

The Titans have today confirmed current Canberra Raiders assistant Brett White will be joining their coaching ranks in 2023.

It comes after Titan’s assistant Jim Dymock was shown the door in July following a review of the club.

Titans Coach Justin Holbrook says he’s excited to work with White, as the club looks to build into a fresh season.

“We are all thrilled that Brett will be joining us at the Titans,” Holbrook said.

“Brett is outstanding tactically and is a coach who has hard and tough standards of defence.

“He’s learnt his craft under coaches like Craig Bellamy and Ricky Stuart and he is someone who will put a focus on hard work and effort.”

Holbrook admitted he had always identified White as the preferred candidate for the job.

“When our search began for this role, we quickly identified Brett as the person that we wanted to join our staff and we’re thrilled that he’s chosen to join us at the Titans,” he said.

White played 127 games for the Melbourne Storm and 69 with Canberra and has been working with the Raiders in a coaching capacity since retiring from the NRL in 2014.

He also represented both New South Wales and Australia during his distinguished playing career.
