O’Gara on Smith: “Interestingly, Ugo Monye told me, usually when you quiz the younger players they say ‘I want to play for England’, but he didn’t blink an eye and said, ‘I wanna be the best player in the world.’
“That’s something that stays with you, and it’s a big comment to make, but from what we’ve seen so far he’s well on his way to having a good crack at it anyway.”
