Gold Coast Titans lock Ashley Harrison keen to play next week despite being knocked cold by Manly's Richie Fa'aoso Titans lock Ashley Harrison is stretchered off after being knocked unconscious by a late shoulder charge from Manly's Richie Fa'aoso. TITANS lock Ashley Harrison has put his hand up to play Penrith on Sunday but admits his fate lies in the hands of doctors after he was knocked senseless by a sickening shoulder charge. Manly forward Richie Fa'aoso produced the late, illegal hit on an unsuspecting Harrison that saw the Titans workhorse stretchered from the field in the first half of his 250th NRL match on Saturday. Harrison saw a replay of the incident yesterday and said he believed a head clash lead to him losing consciousness, as he is sporting a massive bruise on his temple. His availability for Sunday's clash against the Panthers is now in the hands of doctors who will put him through a number of cognitive tests this week. Gold Coast coach John Cartwright talks to Manly's Richie Fa'aoso immediately after the game. For sure (I'll do everything I can to play). I've been knocked out plenty of times and in the past years you'd just line up (the following week) and away you'd go," he said. I'll see what the new processes are and we'll go from there. I don't remember much of the first half to be honest. I came to at half-time and everyone was telling me what happened. I'm fine today. It's like nothing happened. It was late and from the blind side. It's a bit hard to avoid something you can't see coming. It's possible Fa'aoso's charge will be referred directly to the NRL judiciary today. If Harrison is ruled out of the Panthers clash, Mark Minichiello and Luke O'Dwyer will come into the selection frame after spending the past two weeks in the feeder competition. Harrison didn't want to speculate on what the judiciary would rule. That's not for me to say. The judiciary will sort it out," he said.

We'll take a bit of confidence out of it I suppose and it'll start to give us a bit of belief in the processes we're doing," he said. They're (Manly) a real yard-stick of the competition in the first couple of weeks. To grind that one out, it's full credit to the boys. We've got to take a bit of confidence out of it and keep looking to improve. We'll go down (to Penrith) with the same attitude as this week and see what happens.
