Smith out for six weeks

Smith sustained the injury in the 27-32 defeat by Montpellier on the weekend and will undergo surgery in the coming days.

The 94-time capped Smith, an integral part of the All Blacks' World Cup-winning squads in 2011 and 2015, will miss three Top 14 games – Lyon and Grenoble at home and an away match at Toulouse.
