Cameron Wayne Smith AM (born 18 June 1983) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer who played as a hooker, spending his entire career with the Melbourne Storm in the National Rugby League (NRL). He has also been an assistant coach of the Queensland rugby league team under former Melbourne teammate Billy Slater since 2022.

An Australian international and Queensland State of Origin representative, Smith is regarded as one of the greatest players of all time.[4][5][6] During his nineteen-year career, Smith won the Dally M Medal as the NRL's player of the year in 2006 and 2017, the Golden Boot Award as the international player of the year in 2007 and 2017, and the NRL's Dally M Hooker of the Year on nine occasions.[a] He was the captain of the Storm for fifteen years,[b] during which time they won the 2012, 2017, and 2020 NRL Premierships,[c] and also Australia and Queensland from 2012[d] until his retirement from representative matches in 2018.

Considered a future Immortal,[7][8] Smith is currently the NRL's games record holder, with 430 matches played;[9] he is the only player to have played over 400 matches. He is also the highest all-time points scorer in NRL history, having surpassed Hazem El Masri's 2,418 points on 12 April 2019.[10] Smith also holds the NRL records for most goals kicked (1295), most tackles made (16917), most grand final points scored (44) and most wins (310).[11][12]

Smith was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) in the 2019 Queen's Birthday Honours for his service to rugby league.[1] He retired from professional rugby league in 2021.[9]
