Robert Tait Smith (1907 â 1958) was a Scottish international rugby union player.
The son of a police inspector, Smith hailed from Kelso in the Scottish Borders.
Smith played for local side Kelso RFC and was a strongly-built forward, known by the nickname "Firpo" after the Argentine heavyweight boxer. He was capped seven times for Scotland, across the 1929 and 1930 Five Nations tournaments.
A baker by trade, Smith ran two businesses in the town of Hawick.
