Across 77 matches Smith has established himself as a consistent attacking threat from full back, averaging nearly 50 metres per game from the carry and crossing for 27 tries — a return that underlines his danger in open play. His carrying load of over 560 attempts points to a player heavily involved in his team's ball-in-hand game, while single-game peaks of 15 carries and 122 metres show he can dominate when conditions invite it. Defensively he contributes without being a primary tackler, which reflects the attacking licence typically afforded to a modern full back.
