Premiership-winning former Manly boss Des Hasler will become the new coach of Gold Coast after the club fired Justin Holbrook with immediate effect today.
Hasler will take charge from 2024, with the club yet to confirm their interim coach to take over for this weekend’s clash against Brisbane.
Holbrook led the Titans to finals once in three full seasons in charge and posted a 38 per cent winning rate from his 82 games at the helm.
“We are here to bring success to the Gold Coast and in order to do so we feel that this is the change necessary to deliver on our promise, which is to win premierships,” Titans CEO Steve Mitchell said.
Hasler joins the club after being fired from his second stint at the Sea Eagles following the fallout of the club’s Everyone In League jersey saga.
He led Manly to the premiership in 2008 and 2011 and coached Canterbury to two grand final appearances, in 2012 and 2014.
“I’m looking forward to joining the Titans and to the 2024 season,” Hasler said.
“The club has a strong playing roster, the region is blessed with emerging talent and the organisation is firmly embedded in the community.
“I’m confident we can deliver success to the region in the coming seasons.”
