Des Hasler has brushed off talk around his infamous blow-up in the sheds last week as the Gold Coast Titans attempt to bounce back from the saga and claw their way off the bottom of the ladder.
The under-siege coach, who appears to be edging ever closer towards an exit on the Glitter Strip, was captured giving a few Titans players a spray following their last-gasp loss to the Wests Tigers last weekend.
In viral footage, Fox League cameras caught Hasler barking orders inside the dressing room as the club’s owners Rebecca and Brett Frizelle ducked for cover in an awkward moment.

'Forgot all about it': Des Hasler brushes off infamous Titans blow-up
The likes of David Fifita and Klese Haas were reportedly the target of the coach’s ire. However, a week on from the incident, Hasler saw the funny side of things.
"Oh, I forgot all about that," the two-time premiership-winning coach responded with a hint of a smirk ahead of Gold Coast’s meeting with the New Zealand Warriors.
"I moved on. They’re just moments, so yeah, I’ve moved on."
Despite somewhat seeing the funny side of things, the Titans’ predicament is no laughing matter.
They have won just four games all season as the drums have long since started to beat for Hasler's potential axing.
However, the veteran figure, who will clock 500 games as an NRL coach this weekend, is still adamant he is the right man to lead the club into the future.
And retiring playmaker Kieran Foran has insisted his long-term mentor still has the support of the playing group as they attempt to dig themselves out of their current predicament across the ditch.
"We absolutely love him and the guys love playing for him," Foran declared.
"They see his pride and his passion and the dedication that he puts into coaching the side.
"At 64 years of age, he’s been in the game a long, long time both as a player and as a coach and I think the impact he’s had on many players’ lives has been instrumental."
