Aaron Smithor Aaron Luke Smith is a professional rugby player who plays for the New Zealand national team. The New Zealand team is also referred to as the All Blacks due to their black sports attire. He plays the scrum-half position in the team and is one of the most skilled people on the team. He has been playing in the same position for the team since the time he started playing. He is considered the most-capped player in the scrum half for the same reason.
His professional journey started way late, initially, he had to play provincial rugby to get to the point where he had the fame and recognition to be selected for the national team. After an outstanding stint in provincial rugby, he played super rugby in which he also showcased remarkable skills and further cemented his career, and gave a major push to his ultimate goal of being a legend in this game.

He played for the “Maori All Blacks in 2010 and was among the few players who got selected to represent the All Black in 2012. Delivering a recommendable performance in the 2015 Rugby World Cup winning team.
Recently, there were talks of the Autumn Nations Series Test against Wales and All Blacks head coach Ian Foster. In this game, you’ll see Aaron Smith making his 113th Test appearance for New Zealand meaning he will surpass Dan Carter as the most capped backline player in All Blacks history. He’d be playing for all blacks at the scrum half with Richie Mo’unga continuing at fly-half. In the front row, Codie Taylor does his job brilliantly and he packs down. Also, Ardie Savea returns at number eight, which seems to be a good sign for the team.
Last year the roof at Principality Stadium was open due to Covid regulations but this time it will be closed. It will ensure an amazing atmosphere for fans and players. Hope it all bodes well for the team, and all the players, hope they do an outstanding job and bring home the W, for all the fans as they have been a support for the team.
