Jordan Smiler

19th Jun 1985 1.93m/108kg Blindside Flanker

A former New Zealand Sevens squad member, Smiler switched his allegiances in 2011 to skipper the Australian side at the Oceania Championships in Samoa.

Having cut his teeth in Waikato’s aged grade ranks, Smiler moved to Australia looking for greater opportunities.

He flourished under the coaching of Scott Fava at Northern Suburbs in Sydney's Shute Shield, running the side like clockwork alongside fellow Brumbies Zack Holmes and Scott Sio.

Ahead of the 2017 season, Smiler has 45 Super Rugby caps and has scored 5 points since his debut in 2013.

At the end of the 2017 Super Rugby season, Smiler joined Japanese Top League side Suntory Sungoliath.
