Positive news on injury to Gold Coast Titans' Ashley Harrison Ashley Harrison could return quicker than expected for the Titans. MAROONS enforcer Ashley Harrison is expected to be back on deck in time to push his Origin claims after doctors revealed his ankle injury is not as bad as first thought. Harrison underwent scans late yesterday and while the Titans will not have the report until this morning, the Maroons lock is expected to return in time to play the round 11 game against the Eels at Mudgee, after which the Origin team will be named. Harrison (ankle syndesmosis), Matt Srama (compound fracture of the finger) and Luke O'Dwyer (broken jaw) were initially expected to endure lengthy sideline stints but all could be back within a month. "We won't know about Harro in detail until (this) morning when we get the reports from the scans," Titans football manager Scott Clark said. It's syndesmosis (ankle ligament strain) but not a bad case, the medical staff are hopeful that it's not an injury that's going to keep him out for too long. Fingers crossed there. You don't know the full story until you get the pictures. But he'll be back in time to play a game before Origin selection and that won't affect his chances at all. Titans coaching staff were somewhat relieved yesterday with news their latest casualties may not be as severe as first thought. The club could have as many as three of their injured eight players back for Sunday's clash with the Warriors in New Zealand. Kevin Gordon, Brad Takairangi and Ben Ridge are in contention to be named today. But the trio will have to be close to 100 per cent fit, with coach John Cartwright wanting no repeat of Sunday's bench-clearing injury crisis. "If anyone's 50-50 we've made that decision already that they won't go," Clark said. They need to be close to 100 per cent before we even consider taking them to New Zealand. Srama and O'Dwyer had surgery on Sunday night and Clark said their prognosis was good. "Luke O'Dwyer I think will probably only miss about four weeks, maybe six weeks tops," Clark said, comparing the clean break of his jaw and insertion of a plate to David Mead's injury suffered earlier this month. Hopefully he won't be out for too long. Srama had his badly broken finger wired but may miss as few as two matches before resuming hooking duties. Possibly only two to three games he'll miss as well. Once he gets that strength back into it, he shouldn't miss too much at all," Clark said. Gordon is expected to be named for the Warriors clash after missing Sunday's game with hamstring soreness. "We probably erred on the side of caution (on Sunday) and he's progressing well," Clark said. Brad Takairangi (hamstring) is another one that should be right this weekend.
