IN the second of a three-part series, the Bulletin chats with three Gold Coast Titans stars about the teammates they love, the ones they love to hate and those who light up the long roadtrips.
JAI WHITBREAD
Closest teammate
I’m close with Stoney (Sam Stone) and all the boys we play golf with. There’s about eight of us – Stoney, Peach, Arrow, Peatsy. We’re all pretty close.
Most annoying teammate
Shannon Boyd. He’s just a huge human and he throws his weight around. He’s a serial pest. He’s always hitting you and grabbing you and flicking you and playing pranks. He’s good fun but he’s a pest.
Funniest teammate
Leilani Latu. Some of the things and quotes he comes up with, I don’t know how he remembers them and where he gets them from but he’s a crack up.

BRIAN KELLY
Closest teammate
I don’t mind mucking around with Ash and Tyrone Peachey and Roberts when they’re in their good moods. There’s a lot of young fellas as well.
Most annoying teammate
Phillip Sami just does silly, stupid stuff. He is funny though.
Funniest teammate
Phil, Peachey, he chucks up a few funny things. Leilani Latu throws up some good jokes as well.

BRYCE CARTWRIGHT
Closest teammate
I’ve known (Leilani) Latu for a while, I went to high school with him.
Most annoying teammate
Boydy (Shannon Boyd). He’s always mucking around and he doesn’t shut up.
Funniest teammate
Probably Lani Latu. He’s very loud.
