His high leaping play enabled him to hold down a key position whilst being only 184cm and is sometimes compared to Russell Robertson.
Smith debuted with the North Melbourne Football Club in 1987 and was delisted due to a string of injuries at the end of 1992 after 47 games and 38 goals.
He played for Werribee in 1994, and had a dominant season there. He was one of the Association's leading goalkickers for the season, finished third in the J. J. Liston Trophy count, and continued his reputation for taking high marks. He was consequently recruited back to the AFL by Melbourne for the 1995 season.
By far Smith's most successful and consistent season was at the Melbourne Football Club in 1995.
Smith is Australian. He coaches in Sydney Major League, the highest level of play in Australia, and has coached the Auburn Orioles and New South Wales. Express player Dane Wigg also played for Smith in Australia. He was the pitching coach of the 1998, 2005, and 2007 Australian national teams, assistant coach of the 1998 and 1999 teams, and head coach of the 2000 team and in 2010, after leading his NSW U/18 team to the 2010 AAA National championship, he was added to the coaching staff for the AAA Australian team.
Smith has spent significant time on player development. He has coached men's, boys, and women's teams.
Shaun Smith's Mark of the Century (Rd 22, 1995) – extended version
Shaun Smith gets higher than Joe Cocker on a Friday night at the Gabba, in the last round of the 1995 regular season. It was later (in my opinion, rightfully) adjudged the Mark of the Century. Unfortunately I don't have the footage of him kicking the subsequent goal but it is out there if anyone wants to buy the Name a Game DVD for $30!
