Across six Super Rugby appearances as a replacement, Smith has built a consistent profile defined far more by his defensive work than his involvement with ball in hand. His tackle numbers stand out for a bench player logging limited minutes, pointing to an immediately active role when introduced. On his best days he combines that defensive output with genuine carry threat, suggesting he can influence games in short bursts on both sides of the ball.
