Rhyno Smith Biography

Rhyno Smith is one of the most popular and richest Rugby Union Player who was born on February 11, 1993 in Paarl, South Africa. Rhyno Christo (born 11 February 1993 in South Africa) is a South African rugby league player for the Cheetahs Pro14. He is a fullback but can also play fly- half and winger.

After being promoted to the senior team and playing in the 2014 Currie Cup First Division, he missed the team’s start to the season. He was a substitute during the team’s 31-37 loss to the Griffons in Welkom. After a floodlight failure caused the match to be abandoned at 58 minutes, he was promoted to the starting lineup for their second match against East London’s Border Bulldogs. He also scored his first senior attempt in the 17th minute. The following week, Smith played his first match, scoring five conversions to win a 50-29 win over the Falcons. This result saw the Leopards reach the semi-finals. The Leopards faced the Falcons again in the semi-final match. Smith scored two first-half goals, but it wasn’t enough to defeat the Falcons, who won 31-24. This eliminated the Leopards from competition.

Smith firmly established himself in the NWU Pukke team for the 2015 Varsity Cup, starting all nine of their matches. He scored tries in their matches against NMMU Madibaz, Maties, UCT Ikey Tigers and CUT Ixias during the regular season, helping them qualify for a play-off spot by finishing in fourth position on the log. Smith’s three penalties and one conversion proved crucial in their semi-final match against UP Tuks as they won 29–28 to qualify for their second successive final. However, as in 2014, Smith find himself on the losing side in the final, as Bloemfontein-based university UFS Shimlas easily won 63–33 in the final. In total, Smith scored 101 points during the competition to finish as the overall top scorer. He was named the Player That Rocks for the competition and also included in a Varsity Cup Dream Team that was named at the conclusion of the season. Smith scored a try (which was later nominated as the try of the season) and kicked a conversion in the Dream Team’s defeat to the South Africa Under-20s as the latter prepared for the 2015 World Rugby Under 20 Championship.

In 2016, Smith was included in the Sharks’ squad for their 2016 Super Rugby match against the Lions. He made his Super Rugby debut ten minutes into the second half, replacing fullback Odwa Ndungane in a 10–37 defeat in Johannesburg.

In the 2013 Under-21 Provincial Championship, he made 12 appearances for the Leopards U21 team, scoring 33 points, including tries against Western Province U21 and Free State U21. However, the team finished sixth on the log.
