Smith, who Geelong acquired from Newtown, started out as a wingman and rover but played mostly as a defender during his league career.[1] He was a regular in the Geelong team throughout the 1920s. In 1925 he was one of only five Geelong players to appear in all 19 games and was in the back pocket in their 1925 premiership side.[2][3]
