I was able to read it even though I don’t subscribe to that shitty rag.

Talks about how Norman was a guest of the titans in a corporate box last season to watch a sharks Titans game and They were not impressed with his behaviour.

Is everyone able to post this article, it’s behind a paywall?
COREY Norman blew his chance to head to the Gold Coast Titans before he even thought it would be an option.

Titans coach Garth Brennan was keen to lure Norman to the club next season to form a playmaking combination with halfback Ash Taylor.

That potential move was hit on the head by co-owner Darryl Kelly last week after he declared the Parramatta playmaker did not fit the rebuilding club’s “culture”.

The Titans’ rejection of Norman stems back to last year’s Gold Coast game against Cronulla at Cbus Super Stadium.

Norman and ex-Eels forward Kenny Edwards attended the Titans’ corporate facilities to watch good friend James Segeyaro return from injury for Cronulla.

Norman upset club heavyweights with his behaviour in the corporate room.

It wasn’t forgotten when Brennan, who only joined the club this season, raised the idea of signing Norman with club powerbrokers.

For the record, Blindside was also a guest in the Titans corporate area that night and wasn’t impressed with Norman’s behaviour either.

What do you think has changed and why are Parra doing better now compared to previous rounds?

How much of a factor is the coaching?
The two biggest factors IMO are a inform Hayne, and a dummy half that isn't completely useless. Reed has made a massive difference, his service and ability to get the forwards over the advantage line is night and day compared to our two senior dummy half options. The last 2 or 3 weeks we have actually played a bit of footy as well.

Agree. Our players have collectively stepped up.
