Biography

Originally from the Toowoomba Region, he represented the Queensland team in 1977 and 1979. It was the 1979 game where he scored a record 4 tries in Queensland's loss to New South Wales. He then moved to the New South Wales Rugby League premiership to play for the North Sydney Bears, making him no longer eligible for selection for Queensland in the first two matches of the 1980 interstate series. However, with the last match of that series being the experimental first ever State of Origin match, Smith was able to be recalled to play five-eighth for the Maroons. After playing in the Canberra Raiders' inaugural season in 1982, Smith retired. He has since been a selector for the Queensland Origin team in the 1990s.[1]
