What a first win for the Dolphins.
A 36-10 victory in the Gold Coast has moved them above both the Roosters and the Panthers on the premiership ladder.
It was a troubling night for the Titans, who finished the match with 10 errors, one sin bin and nine conceded penalties.
“For 80 minutes tonight, they were prepared to play the long game against a dangerous Titans side,” Shaun Johnson said of the Dolphins post-match.

Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow admitted the external noise around the team in the last few rounds have not been ideal for the team, but he was confident it would not continue to take a toll on their results.
“I think for myself, I have a clear mind and make sure I don’t put pressure on myself,” he told Fox League post-match.
“The way I got through this week was building my own game… it boosted my game.
“It is a big relief (getting the win) because it shows how I can play.
“This week we built on our connection and I think that showed out there with what we can do as a spine. It is a big stepping stone for us so I’m pretty happy with the result.”
