Across 78 matches Smith has accumulated 371 tackles, making him a consistently high-volume defender for a prop — a trait that defines his value in the forward contest. His carrying numbers are modest and functional, reflecting the unglamorous but essential work expected of a tighthead at this level. A single-game peak of 21 tackles underlines that he can shoulder a serious defensive burden when the match demands it.
