How could it not, for Smith has become, in the past five years, an All Blacks institution. If anyone says he's not the best outside back in world rugby, it would be interesting to hear who they think is better. It doesn't seem to matter whether he plays at fullback or wing, Smith sharpens the All Blacks attack. What Smith does is make sure that not much becomes quite a lot in an attacking sense. That will surely benefit Dagg, who will most likely become a regular on the right wing once Smith disappears.
