Sunday Showdown: Titans Host Dragons at Cbus Super Stadium

The Gold Coast is buzzing this Sunday, March 29, as professional rugby league returns to Robina for a high-stakes Round 4 clash. The Gold Coast Titans are set to defend their home turf against the visiting St. George Illawarra Dragons in what promises to be an intense encounter at Cbus Super Stadium. With the AFL’s Gold Coast SUNS on a bye this weekend, all local eyes are firmly fixed on the NRL as the city’s premier sporting attraction today.

Match Details: Titans vs. Dragons

  • Teams: Gold Coast Titans vs. St. George Illawarra Dragons
  • Venue: Cbus Super Stadium, Robina
  • Gates Open: 2:45 PM AEST
  • Kick-off: 5:15 PM AEST
  • Broadcast: Fox League and Kayo Sports

The Preview: A Battle for Momentum

Both teams enter this fixture with a massive point to prove. The Titans are looking to ignite their 2026 campaign and establish Cbus Super Stadium as a fortress. After a challenging start to the season, a home win against a traditional rival like the Dragons would provide the perfect springboard for the months ahead. The "Legion" of Titans fans is expected to turn out in force today to provide that critical home-ground advantage and help the squad open their account for the year.

The Dragons, meanwhile, are making their first trip to the Gold Coast in over two years. Historically, the "Red V" has enjoyed trips north, boasting a solid record against the Titans in Queensland since 2007. However, they arrive today facing significant roster hurdles. With several key players sidelined due to recent injuries and suspensions thinning their forward pack, the Dragons' depth will be tested. All eyes will be on captain Clint Gutherson, who has a formidable track record against the Gold Coast, having scored five tries in his last five appearances against them.

Match Day Information

Beyond the 80 minutes of elite rugby league, the afternoon is designed for the whole family. Gates open early at 2:45 PM, allowing fans to enjoy live entertainment, giveaways, and the unique match-day atmosphere that only a Sunday twilight game can offer. With the kick-off scheduled for 5:15 PM, spectators will see the game transition under the bright lights of one of Australia's best rectangular stadiums.

For those attending, please be aware of local travel adjustments. Due to ongoing roadworks on the Gold Coast Highway, the Burleigh Heads shuttle bus stop has been temporarily relocated to West Burleigh Road at Stanley Street. Fans are encouraged to utilize public transport, with regular services running to Robina Station, located just a short walk from the stadium gates.

The Aussies Conclude on the Sand

In addition to the league action at Robina, the Gold Coast concludes its hosting of the 2026 Australian Surf Life Saving Championships today. Known as "The Aussies," this event has seen the country’s best lifesavers competing across the coastline for over a week. The final rounds of the elite ironman and ironwoman events wrap up on the sand this afternoon, making it a spectacular day for professional sports across the region.
