Gold Coast co-owner Darryl Kelly is a former truck driver who is committed for the long haul to turn the club around.

His message is that he won't be giving up on the under-performing Titans. Far from it.

For more than a decade, Kelly has invested millions of dollars of his own funds and plenty of hard work besides to turn the club into an NRL premiership force.

That quest has come up empty so far, with the Titans making just two finals appearances since 2010.

They should have more to show than repeat failures on the footy field, but stoic Kelly retains faith.

After a fourth loss in a row in 2025, a dire 50-18 capitulation to North Queensland, Kelly is backing coach Des Hasler and the squad to turn it around.

"Des works extremely hard and I am just an old ex-truck driver," Kelly told AAP.

"The only way I got ahead was by working hard. As a result, I have a lot of faith in people that work hard too.

"Nothing is in a straight line in this world as far as growth is concerned. You have your ups and downs and you learn from your downs.

"You have got to be resilient when that does happen."

Kelly remains a visionary. He will press ahead with new plans to build a state-of-the-art high-performance facility on the Gold Coast.

"At the moment we are waiting on a decision by external parties on some land so we can start developing," he said.

"We have got a couple of options up our sleeve, but we need to have a new facility by the end of 2026 when our lease at (current training base) Parkwood runs out.

"When we went to Parkwood we had an NRL side, but now we have an NRL side, an NRLW side and four disability sides and three times the number of juniors in our pathways. We can't continue to operate in a facility we built for one team."

The Titans have put plenty of resources into the club's coaching group.

Dual premiership-winning head coach Hasler has a lucrative three-year deal and four coaching assistants - Michael Monaghan, Brad Davis, Jimmy Lenihan and Brett White.

In comparison, Brisbane have just three assistant coaches.

The Titans boast current or former internationals and State of Origin players such as Tino Fa'asuamaleaui, Moeaki Fotuaika, David Fifita, Reagan Campbell-Gillard, AJ Brimson and the injured Kieran Foran.

"I am still confident we will get there. I am confident in the playing roster and in the coaching staff," Kelly said.

"Things certainly haven't gone our way this year, but we have had up to seven first-grade players out at one time.

"We still have to find that consistency level somehow, no matter who is playing."

Kelly can often be seen watching training with a keen eye. His knowledge of the game is clear. The passion is still there.

"It has been a big part of my life, and as I get older it is becoming a bigger and bigger part of my life … to see the Titans become successful," Kelly said.

"I believe the playing roster has the capability. They just have to believe in themselves, but we have to get our best side on the paddock."
