Hasler was left seething after the loss and his frustration boiled over in a fiery locker room moment that was captured on camera. As Hasler entered the rooms to address his playing group, he was left infuriated by the sounds of the showers running. The 64-year-old exploded into a fit of rage as he shouted at the players in the showers, forcing them to walk out and sit with the playing group. The vision was shown on Sunday Night with Matty Johns with Bryan Fletcher making jokes at the players who were scolded. 'I think he's blowing up because they're all showering in their undies,' Bryan Fletcher quipped. Des Hasler blows up at Titans players Hasler's frustration was just as evident during his post-match press conference as he lamented several 'dumb' mistakes by his playing group. 'It's really disappointing that in the second half we fumble, we bumble, we miss tackles, we throw balls over the sideline, we get carried over the sideline and we complete 9 from 15 sets. 'I'm really disappointed in that performance. It was really dumb. 'We didn't need luck. There was the scrum penalty and three knock ons that the referee missed, but I'm not going to blame the loss entirely on the referee's performance. 'We didn't help ourselves.' The loss drops the Titans to 4-13 on the season and keeps them glued to the bottom of the ladder. Originally published as Gold Coast Titans coach Des Hasler blows up at players in the shower
