I've heard (not sure on accuracy) that Reed will be leaving Parramatta 100% BUT he is also taking to Titans. Titans are also talking to Cheese, and I assume they would prefer to land cheese, but if it falls through then have Reed as a back up. Smith was spotted meeting with the Titans and touring facilities recently so there's a decent chance the Titans may snare him over the Roosters who need to move on Joey Manu (who publicly said he wants to stay at easts) in order to be able to afford him - either way if any of this merry go round is true, the longer discussions take over Smith, the better it is for us as i'd say Reed wont want to wait for that garbage to work itself out and sign with us
