Across 54 matches Smith contributes well beyond the traditional fly-half brief, averaging nearly six carries per game and consistently breaching the gain line to accumulate close to 2 000 metres with ball in hand. His tackle numbers are equally telling — over 200 across the dataset, with a single-game peak of 16 — suggesting a player who takes on genuine defensive responsibility rather than sitting on the edge of collisions. Those contributions, combined with 14 tries over the period, point to a ten who shapes matches in multiple phases rather than functioning purely as a distributor.
