Titans part ways with Brennan: Position 'untenable', says chairman
The Gold Coast Titans have parted ways with coach Garth Brennan, effective immediately.
The Titans, who sit at the bottom of the ladder after 17 rounds, will begin their search for a new coach, however, the club’s assistant coaches Luke Burt and Craig Hodges will take over for the rest of the season.
Titans head of performance and culture, Mal Meninga was due to present his findings from an internal review at a board meeting on Monday morning, however, the Titans have acted on Sunday.
It is believed Queensland coach Kevin Walters and St Helens coach Justin Holbrook are the early frontrunners for the job vacated by Brennan’s departure.
Gold Coast have issued a statement with executive chairman Dennis Watt confirming the move.
"No one at this organisation, or anyone involved in rugby league, wanted Garth’s time as head coach of the Titans to end this way,” Watt said.
"However, the results the club has achieved on the field this season have not met expectations, and the team’s performance in recent weeks has fallen to a level that is unacceptable to the board, our members, fans, sponsors and partners.
