Background

Born in Sydney, New South Wales, Smith is of Māori and Indigenous Australian descent. He played his junior rugby league for the Mascot Jets, before being signed by the Parramatta Eels.

Smith is the son of former New Zealand international Tyran Smith, and the nephew of boxer and former rugby league player Anthony Mundine.

Early career

In 2015, Smith played for the Parramatta Eels' NYC team, before joining the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs mid-season.

2016

On 7 May, Smith played for the Junior Kiwis against the Junior Kangaroos. In Round 12 of the 2016 NRL season, he made his NRL debut for the Bulldogs against the Canberra Raiders, scoring two tries. He had played for the Bulldogs' Intrust Super Premiership NSW side the day before, but due to regular Bulldogs centre Josh Morris being called up to the New South Wales State of Origin side on the day of the NRL game, Smith was called up and had to drive from Sydney to Canberra to make the game.
