The Gold Coast Titans have had their application for new recruit Dale Copley to play against the Parramatta Eels on Friday denied by the NRL.

The new system introduced by the NRL this season for naming team lists requires each club to name a squad of 21 players on Tuesday. If the club wishes to bring in a player outside the 21 named, they must make an application to the NRL.

The Titans seem to be the first club to make this type of application and it is unsure why they were denied.
