Titans are keen to strike gold with Cam

THE Titans are formulating a two-year bid to poach Queensland legend Cameron Smith from Melbourne to lead a Gold Coast revolution.

Fresh off landing the signature of Broncos sensation David Fifita, the Titans have discussed offering Smith a two-season contract to finish his NRL career on the Glitter Strip.

Smith, 37, is off-contract beyond this season and is believed to be on the verge of deciding whether he will play on or retire.

The Storm are in the box seat to retain Smith (pictured) if he decides to forge on into a 20th N NRL camp paign, but the Gold Coast are p preparing t to dangle a tantalising carrot in f front of the former Kangaroos skipper. s The Titans are open to discussing a two-year contract with Smith which would see him retire at 39 in 2022 and potentially clock up more than 475 NRL games.

Influential Titans co-owner Darryl Kelly confirmed the club’s interest in Smith and said the Gold Coast favoured a two-year commitment as opposed to a one-year cameo.

“If Cameron Smith is available anyone who didn’t talk to him would have to be foolish, he would bring so much to any organisation,” Kelly said.

“He would bring self-discipline and an attitude towards winning.

“We realise we have to raise the standard of our squad.

“Roster management is a very hard task and turning rosters around in short periods of time is almost impossible.

“It’s recognised that we need some experience, there’s no doubt about that, and in the right positions.”

The Titans have recruited well for the 2021 season with Fifita joined by Melbourne rookie Tino Fa’asuamaleaui and Newcastle front-rower Herman Ese’ese.
