Titans fullback Jarryd Hayne expected to miss the next month of NRL

Jarryd Hayne is expected to spend about a month on the sidelines recovering from the ankle injury he suffered in his Gold Coast team's upset NRL loss to Newcastle.

Hayne will undergo scans today but the Titans boss Graham Annesley is resigned to losing him for a lot more than just the highly anticipated first clash with his former club Parramatta on Friday night.

The winless Titans are now facing an early season injury crisis after Anthony Don and Kayne Lawton suffered dislocated shoulders in the same game.
