About Andrew Smith
Born 1960. Andrew Smith is an australian rules football player.
Andrew Smith (born 28 August 1960) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Collingwood and the Sydney Swans in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Smith, a defender, was recruited from Watsonia. He played just once in 1980, his debut year, but in 1981 was a regular fixture in the Collingwood team, making 18 appearances, including two finals. A dislocated shoulder, suffered during Collingwood's semi-final win over Fitzroy, cost him his spot in the side and ultimately a grand final. Smith played 11 games in 1982 and added only five more games over the next two seasons and made the move to Sydney.
